PistaFlow turns the folders already on your Mac into a calm, four-column kanban board
PistaFlow turns the folders already on your Mac into a calm, four-column kanban board.
Pick a root directory — like ~/Projects or your Desktop. Each immediate subfolder becomes a card. Drag cards between Todo, WIP, Review, and Done. Your folders never move; only their workflow state does.
LOCAL-FIRST BY DESIGN
• No accounts, no sync, no subscription
• Column state lives on your Mac as extended attributes
• Mirrored one-way to Finder color tags (Kanban: Todo, Kanban: WIP, and more)
• Work stays private — nothing leaves your machine
TWO WAYS TO WORK
• Folders view — organize projects as cards; expand a folder to see tracked files
• Files view — place individual files on the board with the same columns
• Search, sort, and filter by column to find work fast
• Customize appearance with built-in theme presets
BUILT FOR PEOPLE WHO THINK IN FOLDERS
Indie developers, designers, researchers, and freelancers who already organize life as directories on disk. If you want kanban visibility without Jira, Notion, or Trello — and without another cloud — PistaFlow fits next to Finder.
REQUIREMENTS
• macOS 26.0 or later
• Apple Silicon or Intel Mac
