TaskBan

A kanban-style view of your Google Tasks.

The tasks are only stored in Google Tasks, no duplication/syncing takes place. Because of this it is a single user experience. There is a small amount of metadata stored in the Google Apps Script Properties Service, but this is also per user.

Hosted directly on Google Apps Script, free for anyone to use: https://taskban.davidlang.net (with optional static html iframe hosted on GitHub Pages to make the url look nice)

It can also be accessed via the Google Workspace Add-On: https://workspace.google.com/marketplace/app/taskban/674749721550

But by all means, buy me a coffee.
