Shape the board
Columns, colors, wallpaper, and tags — tuned for the project in front of you, not a hosted workspace template.
Dodalu
Kanban that lives next to the code.
A desktop board for folders you already have — columns and cards in local JSON, details in Markdown, no cloud kanban account required.
Placeholder board art — swap for a real screenshot
Open a folder. Get a board.
Dodalu creates a private .dodalu/ workspace beside your
project. The board is inspectable JSON; card write-ups stay normal
Markdown files in the tree.
Write beside the cards
Open a card’s Markdown in the docs pane: preview by default, source when you need it, or jump to your external editor.
Keep git out of the way
Live board state stays git-ignored. Durable notes commit with the project like any other doc.
Agents stay outside the app.
Dodalu is not a chat host. An optional MCP server exposes board tools to clients you already use — Cursor, Codex, Copilot, Claude Desktop — while the desktop UI stays a calm place to move work by hand.
Register agent clients from the app. Guidance lands in the project. Conversations stay in your editor.
