I really like kanban boards for organizing my work but one feature I really miss in nearly all solutions is a way to schedule my day using existing tasks in a board. And preferably in a stand-alone way rather than adding it to my google calender.

I'm currently using paymo [1], which does a great job at this. Example of what I mean: https://imgur.com/a/3Re9sXn But I'm open for switching to any alternatives.

this is not a feature I have ever missed, and I wonder why you would miss it? I move the task I am working on into in progress and when I am done with it I move it into review or done. If I scheduled my day based on tasks, then when task A was not moved from in progress and task B is scheduled to start what happens? It sounds to me like it would be more problematic - sorry to go on about it but I really am wondering because I've never considered I would want to schedule tasks on a kanban board - how do you see it working?

I follow some practices from Cal Newport Deep Work [1]. In this case it is about scheduling your day (see also this blogpost [2]).

I really like the feature in paymo to schedule your working day with tasks that do exist in a kanban board. It ensures that you can quickly see what you're working on when picking things to do during the day and it also ensures that everything you do is in a kanban board.

I understand that most people probably don't miss this feature but I have a hard time going back to a system that does not have this.

I was using paymoapp for a while, it was better than others that I had used in the past. Then I came across clickup.com, it is much better than paymoapp in my opinion. I switched and so far it has been pretty good. It is also cheaper than paymo, if you pay yearly. I still haven't exhausted the free plan though.

Not associated with them, just a happy user.

Microsoft planner is pretty great if you have access to it. You can create cards on a Kanban board but also schedule them and see a calendar and a Gantt chart view of your projects.

Not open source and it's sad
