Earlier quoted context omitted.

I would love to see webhook support add to this. For many users this isn’t an issue but for use it’s a must have feature. Will stick to trello for the time being.

WeKan https://wekan.github.io has: 1) Per-board webhooks at board right sidebar / Board Settings / Webhooks 2) Global Webhooks at Admin Panel See right menu of https://github.com/wekan/wekan/wiki , scroll down to webhooks part of menu. It's possible to send board change events like move card as webhooks, for example to some chat: https://github.com/wekan/wekan/wiki/Outgoing-Webhook-to-Disc... Or to NodeRED: https://g…

WeKan doesn’t seem to have an App for iOS https://wekan.team/app/

Suggestion to the OP: please consider adding a family plan at a lower monthly price point. On this topic, I really love Kanban boards, but a hosted version (or self-hosted) is not as appealing to me as a native app with some sync. Years ago, I used to use a closed source but free desktop app on Windows (now long discontinued though) and found that it worked very well for me to track my work. Apple’s Reminders app has…

You can check my FOSS note-taking app: https://www.notes-foss.com. It is a native Qt C++ app.

It has a feature that converts your Markdown tasks into a Kanban: https://www.notes-foss.com/videos/kanban.mp4

It doesn't have a built-in sync, but people have told me they managed to sync the DB using Dropbox and other such services.

It has a one time payment option to unlock the Kanban feature, but you can also compile it yourself and get all the Pro features for free (all instructions are on GitHub[1]).

Congratulation on releasing this project, despite some of the criticism mentioned here. One issue I encountered. I cannot seem to create lists containing works like Todo, Done, .... No error message is shown. Creating lists with random strings always work though.

Thanks for the support and for flagging - I've not seen that behaviour before, but I'll raise a ticket to investigate!

Great project, will give it a try, we've been using another open source trello clone that has been pretty solid and very closely clones the trello UI. https://github.com/plankanban/planka

Thank you! Planka is a great project, but I found the fact it closely clones Trello's UI to be its biggest downfall. I'm hoping to build on top of Trello's simplicity and customisability with a modern UI/UX interface.

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!

I would love to see webhook support add to this. For many users this isn’t an issue but for use it’s a must have feature. Will stick to trello for the time being.

This is a cool idea - I've added it to the roadmap!

It would be interesting to build an app like this designed specifically to run on Cloudflare workers.

- Essentially free for moderate use

- Use CF Access for simple access control

- Easier self-hosting because it is designed for a specific target environment

- No servers to worry about

- Could build AI integrations easily
