Is it me or does that look extremely similar to Linear, another competitor in that space? Not in the sense of the feature set, there's only so many things you can do with an issue tracker and a kanban board, but in the sense of actual visual design (fonts, text sizes, etc.)
Why .so? I understand payara.fish, because payara is based on glassfish. What is the story here? I'm just curious (and bored) :).
My opinion based on feature and screenshots is that the UX is as shitty as Jira. The nightmare with Jira is this product manager obsession with kaban boards that become overwhelmed once your project become serious.
For me the problem is more that 'agile' is now a buzzword and companies try to apply it to lots of things where it doesn't really work. In our company our CIO declared everything should be agile. So now we log our hours in Jira. That's it :P supposedly that makes us agile or something.
Looks very promising I will give it a try. Related: I would love to see an open source confluence alternative as well, as for issues there are many (more or less capable) options to choose from.
Thank you for posting this. Looks pretty basic but somehow complete. The first impression is good. Here's some criticism: The first thing I look for in a issue tracker is the screen estate to write the task. I understand that some people write a list of issues in the form of short blurbs and iterate on them afterwards, but it always feels frustrating to me to having to write the title in a modal window, save and then…
> On my computer it started in Dark Mode, and the experience overall was quite a bit disorientating. Also no light/mode switch icon in the header. I don't really know that you need a light/dark mode switch. It should follow your preferences. I see dark mode websites all the time, because my desktop is set to dark mode. On my Windows machine I see the same websites with the light-mode, because I did not bother to figu…
Why do people call things Jira alternatives that contain about 1/500th of the features? It's just a simple project management tool with a kanban board...
License AGPL3 https://github.com/makeplane/plane/blob/develop/LICENSE.txt
As a user, that's the best for a software like this, because it means it cannot be ever closed source!
In this case, it looks like Plane is not requiring copyright transfers. So that cuts off the practicality of them ever re-licensing their software (commercially or otherwise). That's a good thing as it means it is indeed not likely the license will ever change. The bad thing is that it would be hard to build a company around this project. The AGPLv3 is just very strict about having to open source any and all bundled features and imposes a lot of restrictions and requirements.
