Nice one, more of a random question: are you planning on having paid only features for the project, or have it fully self-hosted version be the same in terms of features as the hosted one?
This sentence is the first thing I read, and likely the last.
I don't know what "Trello" is. I don't see what your project or app could do for me. Even if I knew Trello, I wouldn't know why does it need an alternative. (Trello was (is?) great for personal use, by non-technical people.)
"A powerful, flexible kanban app that helps you organise work, track progress, and deliver results—all in one place." This is your selling point, not what your app isn't.

Or this one that I've been self-hosting for my team: https://vikunja.io/
We have been using Vikunja for our team for about 2/3 years and it's good. It has it's quirks but generally works. What we haven't done well is keeping up to date with development as the version we installed did enough for us. We recently found out that they moved main development to github and we are keen to contribute where we can as we have found value in it.
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!
Just as a heads up, that roadmap you linked is broken. The formatting looks all off for me on chrome mac (black bars) and then if I click on a card it opens a window but then doesn't load any data. Also it looks like a bug that if you filter by some tags, then click a card, the filter gets reset. This is 5 secs of testing on the one board you have publicly shared, so there might be a few bugs to iron out!
* Can create multiple workspaces with same name which then ticks both * Invite user seems to not work randomly or will not send the email * Cards with special characters like @ will just not be created, and won't show error messages.

A few other trivial bugs I have found: * Can create multiple workspaces with same name which then ticks both * Invite user seems to not work randomly or will not send the email * Cards with special characters like @ will just not be created, and won't show error messages.
IMO don't think this is ready for production use in the slightest - but cool project!
This looks really nice! I loved trello and I'm always happy to see alternatives. My two cents: I use the keyboard a lot, so when I hit "enter" on a form, e.g. to create a board, it closes the popup instead of creating that board.
Yep, the "market" is littered with Trello clones. I was also a big fan - until they went downhill (basically everything post-Atlassian). What most of the clones miss, is Trello's enormous attention to details - like excellent keyboard navigation. What I also miss, is that with Trello, a board is a board, a list is a list, and a card is a card. The builtins are simple and flexible, the add-ons are optional. Most clone…
IMHO many "open source alternatives to" should drop that tagline. This sentence is the first thing I read, and likely the last. I don't know what "Trello" is.

Trello was a popular, free, simple sticky note kanban board. It was too nice, maybe competing with Jira, so Atlassian ate it, leaving a void again.

Planka is not open-source.
They don't appear to be using an OSI-approved license, but the source code is available. So depending on your use-case that may be an academic distinction.
It’s not open source in any reasonable sense.
