Congratulations on the release. While I echo the sentiments from others that screenshots or a video would've been very useful, the signup works without an email confirmation which is great, so I was able to see how the interface looks like. It has a very linear like feel https://linear.app/ . - If you could deploy a demo that doesn't require a signup/sign in, it'll make things a lot easier. You can reset it every x h…

> Those who need a full fledged jira with sso? they won't self host and won't care if it's open source. Not necessarily true. Id like to replace jira in an enterprise environment and we do need sso and prefer to self host.

What's stopping you moving to self hosted?

Jira used to be self hosted, dunno if they still are, but this space for a self hosted enterprise product is already pretty saturated so you should have lots of options.

> * Docker Compose is sufficient for a Quick Start, but not production installation. As an author of a DevOps tool [1] based around Compose files, I beg to differ! It should be pretty easy to adapt the config from the README to use in medium-scale production setups [2] (the only thing that comes to mind is a reverse proxy perhaps). I think I’ll add Kaneo to the Lunni Marketplace after some more testing! [1]: https://…

The example compose file has no database

No external database. It does use SQLite, which is okay unless you’re making a SaaS with thousands of users, and maybe even more, given it uses RabbitMQ for the writes. [1]

The Compose file sets up a volume for it, so the data is persisted correctly.

[1]: If everything’s set up correctly, there shouldn’t be concurrent writes to the SQLite db, and it should scale pretty well then. (The RabbitMQ + SQLite stack is a bit weird, I agree.)

Yeah, was thinking that as well. IMHO, compose.yaml is the best balance of convenience and simplicity if you need one (or even "several") instances. You should only get more fancy if you need to deploy `n` instances with auto provision/load-balancing/failover/etc.

It seems to me that converting docker-compose to kubernetes is fairly straightforward too.

Hey, thank you for the feedback. I have created an issue to add a quick start for Kubernetes as well. Most of my decisions behind this project is to make it super "dumb" and easy to use. Thank you so much for the feedback!

For anyone who wants my username and password, I tried the following for both username and password. Feel free to use this as your demo (remember your scout's promise though). billg@microsoft.com Edit: looks like I managed to break my instance without even trying. I can't edit my first task that I created. https://demo.kaneo.app/dashboard/workspace/nyxfpvfgkk412xg4n... Steps to reproduce: 1. Log in as billg@microsoft…

I didn't meant for anyone to post their credentials under a fake email, but thinks. It's the webpage that should be friendlier to people who just want to toy and explore their app before committing to get it running in production.

Hey, thank you for your feedback and I agree. This project is still under heavy development and one of the lovely HN people opened an issue regarding this. I'll get to make the demo accessible without any accounts. Thank you!

Me too

Me three

Hello, sorry for not making the demo accessible without an account. Currently there's an open issue which I'm working on to do so. This project under heavy development, sorry for the troubles.

It's an internal tool. How much does your task manager really need to scale?

Everything has to go in Kubernetes these days… usually at the request of users who lack the relatively trivial skill to convert a Compose definition into a set of Kubernetes resources.

Or Product Managers/C-Suites/Directors who believe Kubernetes is the future of computing and if it's not in there it's garbage that should be thrown out.

Source: Senior IT Engineer who likes K8s as a concept, but is incredibly disappointed with its unnecessary complexity and everyone's insistence on its use without understanding its role or purpose.

So I bring that up from the perspective of IT, not Product. RabbitMQ isn't something I've seen directly deployed much in the enterprise IT world (not saying it doesn't exist, just that I've not seen it in any prior org myself as a separate component like the Docker Compose cites), but I will say that many Managers/Leaders will just see "Broadcom" on that page and run away screaming like they do from Oracle's stuff.

With documentation on why it was chosen and the function it serves, I (the IT Engineer) am better able to communicate this back to leaders pitching a fit over Broadcom's name on there as well as brief on alternatives. Not saying it's right, just a frustrating reality.

Ah, I was thinking more from the perspective of the consuming party ;)

Though of course it’s nice if you pre-add it, it’s nothing people can’t do themselves.
