Hey HN, I couldn’t find an open-source alternative to Trello that I liked so I built my own. It’s fast, free and fully-customisable. You can self host it, or use the cloud version if you don’t want to manage your own infra. Repo -> https://github.com/kanbn/kan Cloud -> https://kan.bn Roadmap -> https://kan.bn/kan/roadmap I’d love feedback, bug reports, or any feature suggestions!

Sorry, but I can't see what is better or other than every existing kanban-tool. I tried it, but you have only drag & drop lists with items and labels, that is all.

How does it compare to the existing open-source boards, such as: https://wekan.github.io/ https://taiga.io/ https://kanboard.org/

Or this one that I've been self-hosting for my team: https://vikunja.io/

> Kanban reimagined In which way exactly? Also, is there a demo account to try it out?

Thanks for checking it out! Kanban reimagined to focus on speed, simplicity, and user experience - all while being open source. I haven’t had a chance to set up a demo account yet (just added it to the roadmap), but you’re welcome to sign up and try it out in the meantime :)

You may want to rethink your pitch.

Virtually all kanbans, being ultimately todo lists, focus on "simplicity, speed and user experience". You have an open source going for yours, but there is already a ton of O/S kanbans as well.

Im curious about the choice of Next.js for an open source project as Next.js is notoriously painful to deploy to anything other than Vercel.

The difficulty to deploy Next.js is greatly exaggerated in my opinion. It's mostly if you care about some of the more advanced features, like image optimization and hosting static assets on a different origin it can become difficult, but these are features no Next.js alternative generally provide anyway.
