Can I vibe code Trello?
Organize anything as cards on drag-and-drop boards.
A Kanban board is a canonical CRUD-plus-drag-and-drop app: lists of cards you move between columns. For a personal board there is no moat — the data model is three tables and the interaction is a drag library. Trello's paid value is team collaboration, Power-Ups, and Butler automation, none of which a solo user needs. Build the board; skip the enterprise.
Build me a personal Kanban board like Trello. Data model: boards contain ordered lists, lists contain ordered cards. I need smooth drag-and-drop to reorder cards within a list and move them between lists, a card detail panel with description, labels, due date, and a checklist, and quick inline add for lists and cards. Persist order with a fractional-index (position) column so reordering is a single cheap update. Use Next.js App Router with a hosted Postgres, a solid drag-and-drop library, and optimistic updates so drags feel instant. Deploy to Vercel; single-user is fine, no real-time collaboration needed.

- Real-time multiplayer boards and comments
- The Power-Up ecosystem and Butler automations
- Native mobile apps and push notifications
- Team permissions and shared workspaces
Trello's value shows up the moment a second person joins the board — the paid tiers sell collaboration, automation, and integrations, which is exactly what a solo build doesn't need and can't easily replicate.
A prompt is the first move, not the whole game. Course 01 teaches you to take a prompt like this one to a shipped, working app — reviewing, correcting, and steering the agent the whole way.
