I did a recent search to see if something like that exists and the closest I could find were command line todo apps. I’ve wanted something Kanban-ish that could be project-specific and store its data locally within the project’s directory, ideally with git integration on a dedicated branch so that existing cloud options for git could be used for simple synching.
