Hello! Has anyone used the Kanban component for anything other than the kanban layout? For example, using it to drag and drop items in a list, or found a way to do drag and drop without the kanban component? ---

Pretty sure you can use the `stack` elements from the kanban without the actual kanban layout. But I’ll let @Alexis answer this one as he developed this element 😉 ---

Yes, I’ve used it for a bunch of other purposes, including a custom calendar, quiz/evaluation builder, and more. It’s a very helpful component! ---

Can you perhaps share a screenshot of your kanban calendar? Did you manage to create different view like week and month?
