Looks really nice. Is there a roadmap Planka board?

UI seems smoother than Trello or Wekan (on my rather slow machine). Though maybe it's because the demo board doesn't have very much data compared to what I have on those other two. And maybe it has fewer features thus far to bloat the frontend.

Looks nice, I selfhosted https://github.com/wekan/wekan for a while, which is a MIT licensed heavily Trello-inspired alternative, does someone know both Wekan and Plankanban and can tell their differences?

I believe the demo doesn't connect to a database backend. Their GitHub says "without server features".

I switched to Planka after Focalboard went community-supported[1], but failed to appoint any community leaders. So far, I'm very happy with Planka for my needs at home.

There are more self-hosted options in this link[2].

I'm frankly not a fan of the monolithic NextCloud, but the "Decks" feature has good UX and a mobile app on Android, which pretty much nothing else in the open source community has pulled off.

Looks really good, great work!

Anyone knows of something like this but for the terminal?

I’m building a job searching app for the terminal and a main upcoming feature is to have application tracking within the app. It would be great to use a kanban system for it

Thank you!

For someone that's not a web developer, I found Kanboard to be the easiest to set up, and it has all the basic features you'd expect. It's a traditional PHP app where you copy the files to your web server and set a few configuration options and you're good. If you want to use it locally, you download it, run php -S localhost:8080, and start using it.

Note: The project is in maintenance mode, it hasn't shut down or been abandoned.
