[Feature]: Ability to embed Kanban in a Canvas #694

Goal or desired outcome of this feature

It would be next level if we could add an interactable kanban inside a canvas. This would get obsidian closer to being a full "digital whiteboard", similar to Whimsical.

I know canvas is brand new but I figured I'd get this obvious request made.

Describe the feature

I don't know what's possible here. Ideally it could integrate with the bottom canvas toolbar by adding a "Create Kanban" icon: Obsidian_jmRM3GNF2a

If that's not possible, maybe all that's needed is to get it rendering properly when you add a kanban page into a canvas. Right now it just renders the page as raw markdown.

Also it would be awesome if the kanban board was directly interactable in a canvas, as in you wouldn't have to double click the embed just to add/move cards. I suspect this might not be possible with how canvas is set up, but I figured it's worth a shot!

As always, you rock MG 🤘

Can you think of any alternatives or work-arounds?

I think Canvas (generally) needs "layout templates" and Kanban could be one of them. Then Kanban can be a Canvas item itself and Canvas can be nested, so it covers your request.

+1, Would love to add Kanban to my dashboard made in canvas.
