Base Board

Base Board is an interactive, property-driven Kanban board view for Obsidian Bases. It allows you to organize your notes into visual columns based on any property in your frontmatter, providing a seamless drag-and-drop experience for managing tasks and structured data.

Base Board demo

Key Features

  • Property-Based Columns: Instantly generate columns from any frontmatter property.
  • Intuitive Drag & Drop: Move cards between columns to update their properties automatically, and reorder cards within a column.
  • Inline Power: Rename cards or column titles directly on the board.
  • Native Editing Modal: Open any card into a fully-functional Obsidian editor floating directly over your workspace.
  • Rich Cards: View key metadata fields as chips on each card for a quick overview.
  • Configurable Card Title: Set cardTitleProperty: note.title in your .base file to use a frontmatter property (e.g. title) as the card heading instead of the filename.
  • Tags: Color-coded tag chips on cards with a clickable filter bar to narrow the board by tag.
  • Hover Preview: Native note previews on hover (uses the Page preview core plugin).
  • One-Click Creation: Add new notes directly to a specific column without leaving the board view.
  • Data First: All changes are written directly to your Markdown files.

Usage

Open the Command palette (Ctrl/Cmd + P) and run "Base Board: Create new board". Enter a name, choose a folder, and the plugin will scaffold everything for you — a .base file, a tasks folder, and sample task notes. The board opens automatically.
