Powering distributed teams seeking full visibility into work patterns and productivity, Ever Teams is an open-source platform unifying time tracking, task management, project coordination, and team collaboration in a single self-hosted application. The real-time timer tracks work against tasks and projects with one-click start/stop, while the Electron desktop app captures periodic screenshots at configurable intervals, monitors keyboard and mouse activity levels, detects idle periods, and syncs offline sessions automatically. Kanban boards with drag-and-drop, calendar views, and daily planning tools organize work across custom statuses, priorities, and sizes. Built-in video conferencing powered by Jitsi or LiveKit enables meetings without leaving the platform. Timesheet management supports submission, review, and approval workflows with configurable time limits and budgets. The backend runs on the Ever Gauzy NestJS platform providing REST and GraphQL APIs, multi-tenant architecture with organization and team scoping, role-based access control, and an integration framework connecting GitHub issues and pull requests bidirectionally plus JIRA import and sync. Infrastructure includes PostgreSQL, Redis for caching and pub/sub, MinIO for S3-compatible storage, Elasticsearch for full-text search, and Cube.js for OLAP analytics. Built with Next.js 16, React 19, Tailwind CSS, and Recoil, with native iOS and Android clients via Expo, Electron desktop apps for Windows, macOS, and Linux, and Plasmo browser extensions for Chrome and Firefox. Internationalization spans 13-plus locales with dark, light, and system themes. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. AGPL v3.0 licensed.

With nearly 8,000 GitHub stars since its December 2024 launch, Kaneo has rapidly gained traction as the minimalist alternative to bloated project management platforms like Jira and Linear. Built on TypeScript with React and Hono, the interface strips away complexity to focus on execution — plan in list view, track in kanban board, and schedule on interactive Gantt chart timelines where dragging bar handles adjusts start and due dates with optimistic UI updates. Native GitHub integration synchronizes issues bidirectionally, links pull requests to tasks, and keeps product planning aligned with development execution without context switching. The built-in Model Context Protocol server at /api/mcp enables AI tools like Claude and Cursor to manage tasks, projects, and labels directly, while the official @kaneo/mcp npm package provides stdio access for local MCP clients. Authentication supports password, magic link, GitHub OAuth, and Google sign-in with organization-level access management. Rich text editing for task descriptions and comments, label-based initiative grouping, priority levels, assignee management, and due date tracking provide focused planning without ceremony. Deploy with the drim CLI for automatic HTTPS and database setup, Docker Compose for custom configurations, or Helm charts for Kubernetes clusters — all requiring just 2GB RAM and PostgreSQL. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. MIT licensed.

Lalabase is project management built for developers who work with clients, putting tickets, time tracking, documentation, and meetings in one workspace instead of five separate tools. Each client gets an organisation with its own projects and its own access, and roles decide exactly what clients can see. Tasks run as a list or a board with the statuses, priorities, and fields you define per project, rather than the workflow a vendor chose for you. Time tracking records several sessions per ticket, each billable on its own, with exports that go straight into the invoice. Documentation lives beside the work: notes and documents sit in the project, and a folder in your GitHub or GitLab repository becomes the project's docs automatically. Meetings keep their transcript, an AI summary, and the tasks that follow from what was actually said. When you need an answer, the AI assistant takes one question across tickets, comments, documents, hours, and meetings, and it cites the ticket, page, or conversation every answer came from. It even reads your repository's indexed code structurally, so questions about what is implemented get answered against the code. The assistant stays off until you enable it with your own provider key or a model in your own network. An MCP server and REST API let your own agents list, create, and update tickets, comment, and log time. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. AGPL-3.0 licensed.

Operately is an opinionated operating system for growing companies that connects strategic goals directly to execution without the overhead of assembling separate tools. The OKR module tracks company-wide, team-level, and individual goals with measurable success conditions showing progress bars against numeric targets, timeframe deadlines, and automated progress aggregation from linked projects. Project management includes champion ownership, milestone tracking, Kanban task boards with TODO, In Progress, and Done columns, and scheduled check-ins that generate async progress updates on a configurable cadence. Team Spaces give departments organized homes for their goals, projects, documents, and discussions with configurable access controls at the space, goal, and project level. Message boards replace scattered email threads with focused project conversations, while the document and file system provides centralized content management. The Review screen aggregates everything requiring attention or approval into a single actionable view. The Elixir Phoenix backend uses Absinthe for GraphQL queries and mutations, Oban for background job processing, and Swoosh for email notifications. The React TypeScript frontend leverages Apollo Client for GraphQL state management. Full CLI and API access enables programmatic interaction, and MCP tools added in version 1.7 allow AI agents to create goals, update projects, manage tasks, and post check-ins. On RepoCloud, deploy Operately on a dedicated VPS with PostgreSQL persistence, root SSH access, and complete control over your organizational data, all under the Apache 2.0 license.

Documents, tables, files, chat, and video meetings share one workspace in atomic.place, and AtomicServer is the part you host yourself so a team can edit together while the data stays on a machine it controls. Documents are collaborative rich text with comments, icons, and cover images, tables enforce a strict schema with keyboard navigation and copy and paste, and any table can switch to a kanban, calendar, dashboard, or timer view. Templates start an issue tracker, a CRM, a project task list, or a time tracker. Live cursors, typing indicators, and presence avatars show who is working where, group channels carry attachments, replies, and search, and an infinite canvas can be drawn on together. Every write is a signed commit, so a full history is kept. Read and write rights follow the resource hierarchy, and invite links bring people in. Websites are designed in the browser, published in one click, and rolled back to any earlier version. Custom classes and properties come from the Ontology Editor, small apps are plain JavaScript screens over the same data, and AI features work with any model through OpenRouter or a local Ollama and support MCP. Typeahead search suggests results as you type. A REST API answers in JSON-AD, Turtle, or JSON-LD for automation, and export and import commands write and read JSON-AD backups. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. MIT licensed.

"As simple as Trello but as feature-rich as Jira" is how the Leantime team frames its goals-focused project management system for non-project managers - built from the ground up with ADHD, autism, and dyslexia in mind, with behavioral science shaping customizable dashboards, time blocking, low-cognitive-load prioritization, and Kanban, list, table, Gantt, and calendar views so each person works the way their brain does. The PHP application (AGPL, Laravel Blade frontend) connects strategy to execution: tasks with unlimited subtasks and dependencies roll up into milestones on a timeline, sprints and retrospectives handle iteration, and strategy-level blueprint boards - Lean Canvas, SWOT, risk analysis, goal and metric tracking - keep the "why" attached to the work. Knowledge lives alongside: wikis and docs, idea boards, comments on everything, file storage on S3 or local disk, even screen and webcam recording. Time tracking with timesheets supports estimation and client billing. Admin features are serious for an OSS tool: per-project permissions, two-factor auth, LDAP and OIDC single sign-on, Slack, Mattermost, and Discord integrations, a plugin system, and an expanding API that now powers a mobile app. Recent releases added multi-collaborator task assignment and low-vision accessibility improvements. Available in 20+ languages.

With over 15,100 GitHub stars and seven years of battle-tested production use, OneDev replaces entire DevOps toolchains — GitLab, Jenkins, Jira, Artifactory — with a single Java application that runs comfortably on a 1-core 2GB server for medium-sized projects. The platform unifies Git hosting with ANTLR-powered language-aware code search and symbol navigation, pull request workflows with configurable branch protection rules and required reviewers, and customizable issue tracking with scripted state transitions that automatically advance issues when code is committed, builds pass, or deployments complete. The GUI-based CI/CD editor creates pipelines without writing YAML, supporting typed parameters, matrix builds, job templates, cache management, and artifact publishing in a single visual interface. Jobs execute via Docker containers, bare metal shell, Kubernetes pods, or distributed agent pools, with web terminal access for live debugging and the ability to pause running jobs for inspection. Built-in package registries handle Docker images, npm packages, Maven artifacts, NuGet libraries, PyPI wheels, and RubyGems without external infrastructure. AI users can be assigned to issues and pull requests to autonomously implement features, review code, fix CI/CD failures, and resolve merge conflicts. The automated Kanban board supports rule-based card movement, time tracking, timesheets, and service desk ticket creation via email. Cluster deployment enables project replication across servers for high availability and horizontal distribution for scalability. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. MIT licensed.

Your team's work lives in boards, sprints, and deadlines, and TaskView keeps all of it on infrastructure you control instead of a vendor's cloud. Projects break down into lists, tasks, and nested subtasks with priorities, tags, deadlines, and assignees, arranged on custom Kanban boards whose statuses you define yourself. A dependency graph shows which tasks block which, sprints organize iterations, and recurring tasks regenerate on schedule so weekly rituals never need manual recreation. Built-in time tracking separates billable from non-billable hours, and analytics turn that data into workload reports, productivity views, and income and expense summaries. Multiple organizations share one instance with invites, granular role permissions, and real-time updates, while SAML 2.0, OpenID Connect, and SCIM provisioning plug into your existing identity provider. GitHub and GitLab integrations connect development work to the board, signed webhooks push events into your other systems, and scoped API tokens plus a TypeScript client make automation safe to hand out. An MCP server lets AI assistants search projects, create and update tasks, and manage statuses within the exact permissions you grant. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. TaskView Source-Available License licensed.

From the Mattermost team comes Focalboard, an open-source, MIT-licensed project board tool - a self-hosted alternative to Trello, Asana, and Notion databases, written in Go with a React frontend. Every board renders the same card data four ways: Kanban with drag-and-drop columns, a spreadsheet-style table, an image-forward gallery, and a calendar. Cards carry unlimited custom properties - dates, dropdowns, checkboxes, people, URLs - and boards can be grouped, filtered, and sorted by any property combination, with unlimited saved filtered views for quick access. Built-in templates cover the common workflows (meeting agendas, content calendars, project tasks, roadmaps, sprint planning), or you can build fully custom boards from scratch. Collaboration is real: card comments with @mentions, per-board permissions for teams or individuals, file attachments stored on your own infrastructure, and archiving with backup snapshots. Migration tooling imports existing boards from Trello (JSON export), Asana, and Notion, so switching does not mean starting over. It ships in 20+ languages and runs as a lightweight multi-user personal server. Worth knowing before deploying: Mattermost has shifted primary development to the integrated Mattermost Boards plugin, so the standalone edition is community-maintained - stable and functional, but evolving slowly. For teams wanting a free, private Trello without per-user fees, it remains a solid pick.

Paca is a self-hosted project management platform and Scrumban workspace where autonomous artificial intelligence agents collaborate with human software engineers as first-class Scrum teammates instead of external chat assistants. Engineering teams manage sprints, backlogs, and task lifecycles through a shared real-time board powered by Socket.IO where both humans and agents pick up assignments and post progress updates. A native Model Context Protocol server connects external coding assistants such as Claude Desktop and Claude Code directly into projects, tasks, and sprint data without custom scraping scripts. Distributed agents execute in isolated runtime sandboxes powered by the OpenHands software development kit, co-authoring behavior-driven development Gherkin scenarios with product owners and maintaining living system design documents. Visual event-driven automation builders compose multi-branch trigger, condition, and action pipelines that evaluate task dependency gates and cron schedules. A sandboxed WebAssembly plugin runtime allows developers to write custom backend logic and custom board views using Go or Rust. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. Apache 2.0 licensed.

"Less is more" is Kanboard's stated philosophy, and the free, MIT-licensed PHP application lives it: drag tasks between customizable columns, enforce work-in-progress limits per column, and slice boards horizontally with swimlanes for releases, teams, or priorities. Tasks carry what matters - colors, categories, subtasks with time estimates, Markdown descriptions, comments, attachments, internal links, and due dates - and move or duplicate across projects in one click. A concise query language filters any board dynamically (assignee, category, due date, description), and saved filters become custom views. The automatic-actions engine kills repetitive triage: on events like column moves or task creation, Kanboard reassigns, recolors, recategorizes, or closes tasks by rule. Around the board sit a calendar, per-project analytics (cumulative flow, lead and cycle time), Gantt view, and time tracking. Authentication spans LDAP/Active Directory, Google, GitHub, GitLab, and reverse-proxy headers; a JSON-RPC API, webhooks for creating tasks from external systems, and a CLI cover integration. A large community plugin catalog adds what core deliberately omits. With no external dependencies, it runs happily on anything from a Raspberry Pi up - translated into 30+ languages.

Atlas delivers a complete business operations platform in a single Docker Compose deployment, replacing the need for separate CRM, HRM, project management, invoicing, and file storage subscriptions. The CRM module provides pipeline management with Kanban views, contacts, companies, deals, leads, forecasting, saved views, and web-to-lead forms with Gmail integration for per-user email tracking inside deal timelines. HRM handles employees, departments, org charts, leave management, and attendance tracking. The invoicing system generates professional invoices with recurring billing, customizable templates, and payment tracking. Agreements provides PDF contract generation with legally-binding e-signatures, sequential signing workflows, counterparty linking, audit trails, and automated reminders. Projects integrates time tracking, billing, client management, budgets, and reporting in one view. Drive offers file storage with versioning, sharing, comments, activity logs, and password-protected links with Google Drive import and export. The calendar syncs bidirectionally with Google Calendar across month, week, day, year, and agenda views. Write provides rich text documents with cover images, comments, and templates, while Draw adds an Excalidraw-based whiteboard canvas with PDF export and presentation mode. The platform supports five languages, multi-tenant isolation, role-based permissions, and includes an Odoo importer that ingests res.partner, crm.lead, and CRM activity CSV exports for migration. Built on React, TypeScript, Vite, TanStack Query, and Zustand on the frontend with Express, Drizzle ORM, PostgreSQL, Redis, and BullMQ on the backend. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. AGPL-3.0 licensed.

With over 600 GitHub stars and a featured Show HN launch, Mission Control is the agent-first command center that replaces the chaos of manually shepherding AI agents with structured delegation, approval workflows, and autonomous execution. The Next.js 15 web UI delivers an Eisenhower priority matrix with drag-and-drop quadrants, a Kanban board tracking tasks through Not Started, In Progress, and Done columns, and a goal hierarchy with milestone progress bars — powered by shadcn/ui, Radix UI, and @dnd-kit. Six built-in agent roles — Researcher, Developer, Marketer, Business Analyst, Tester, and You — receive tasks through a token-optimized API compressing context by 92 percent to approximately 50 tokens versus 5,400 unfiltered. The autonomous daemon polls task queues on cron schedules, spawns Claude Code sessions via the official CLI, enforces concurrency limits, and auto-retries with loop detection that escalates to human decisions after three failures. Field Ops extends execution to 64 external services across 16 categories with working X, Ethereum with MetaMask signing, and Reddit adapters, protected by AES-256-GCM encrypted vault with scrypt key derivation, per-service and global spend limits, a circuit breaker, and three autonomy levels. All data lives in local JSON files with Zod validation and async-mutex locking ensuring safe concurrent writes, backed by 193 automated Vitest tests. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. AGPL-3.0 licensed.

Scrumboy is a Kanban and sprint management tool that ships as a single Go binary backed by SQLite, deploys in under ten seconds via Docker, and uniquely integrates with AI coding agents through a standards-compliant MCP JSON-RPC endpoint. The dual-mode architecture supports Full mode with bootstrapped authentication, TOTP two-factor auth, OIDC/SSO integration through Keycloak, Authentik, Auth0, or Entra ID, role-based access control across Owner, Admin, User system tiers plus per-project Maintainer, Contributor, and Viewer roles, and Anonymous mode that generates instant shareable boards accessible via unique URLs with zero signup requirement. Custom workflows allow user-defined lane configurations per project including designated "Done" lanes, while sprints with configurable one or two-week cycles include board-level sprint filtering and the ability to disable and re-enable sprint tracking without losing history. Real-time Server-Sent Events power instant multi-user board updates, and outbound webhooks deliver JSON payloads to registered URLs when domain events fire with HMAC signature verification. The MCP endpoint at /mcp/rpc enables native integration with Cursor, Claude Code, and other AI agents through OAuth 2.1 with PKCE authorization, while API access tokens support CLI automation and CI/CD pipelines. Additional capabilities include VoiceFlow voice commands, per-project sticky-note walls, Markdown and Mermaid diagram support in task notes, append-only audit trails, VAPID Web Push notifications, SMTP password reset, Trello import, JSON backup with merge/replace/copy strategies, and 22-language internationalization.
