A drag-and-drop Kanban board implemented as a custom list view for a PayloadCMS collection. Built with DnD-Kit, designed to look native inside the Payload admin UI, and wired directly into Payload's orderable plugin via fractional indexing.
- Replace the default collection list view with a Kanban board without losing access to the standard table view
- Keep the UI consistent with Payload's admin design system — no jarring third-party component styles
- Persist drag-and-drop order durably using fractional indexing so records sort correctly across sessions and concurrent users
- Stay lightweight: no extra state management libraries, no custom backend endpoints — just Payload's existing REST API
