How to use this template

Everything on your plate becomes a card in To do. Pull at most three into Doing. When you feel scattered, look at the board — it tells you what you already decided matters.

Built for a duo? See Simpleban. Every board syncs live between two people, works offline, and supports handing cards to each other.
