What Trello fans wanted Trello to stay: Kan (kan.bn) is a minimalist, frills-free kanban board capturing the original vision before the enterprise pivots - and then adds the things 2025 actually demands. The core is exactly right: drag-and-drop cards across lists, labels and filters to find work fast, comments for discussion on cards, checklists, a detailed activity log tracking every change, and reusable board templates. Workspaces gather your team with member invites and role management, and board visibility controls decide who can view or edit each board. Migration is first-class: a built-in Trello importer brings existing boards over, so switching costs an afternoon, not a quarter. The standout differentiator is the bundled Model Context Protocol server exposing 46 tools across workspaces, boards, lists, cards, comments, checklists, labels, and members - meaning Claude Desktop, Cursor, Copilot, or any MCP client can read and manage your boards in natural language: "move everything assigned to me into Done" becomes a sentence, not a click marathon. The stack is modern TypeScript - Next.js, tRPC, Drizzle ORM over PostgreSQL, Better Auth (credentials or OAuth), Tailwind - with optional SMTP email and S3 file storage. Unlimited boards, lists, and cards; AGPL-licensed.

Pomodoist pairs a task manager with a Pomodoro timer, so the list of what to do and the clock that gets it done live in the same app. Type a task the way you would say it and the quick-add bar sets its priority and estimates its Pomodoros as you type, filing it into the Inbox, Today, or Upcoming views. Plan the week on a calendar, drag cards across a kanban board, spread work along a timeline, or sort it into a four-quadrant priority matrix when everything feels urgent. Start a focus session and the timer tracks intervals against the task at hand, with configurable work and break lengths, while a 3D desktop companion focuses, rests, and celebrates along with you. Share a project and the discussion stays beside the tasks, with comments on shared items and the team's focus time visible next to the work itself. Reports chart weekly focus time, completed tasks, and habit streaks, and voice notes can become task checklists when typing is not an option. An MCP endpoint lets your AI tools manage the same projects after an OAuth sign-in, and optional Google Calendar and Telegram integrations meet the planner where you already are. The self-hosted instance unlocks every feature locally, with your own accounts and one-command backups of the whole database.

Give your coding agents a board they can work, not just read: Kanzo is a self-hosted kanban board where you and your agents move the same tasks through the same columns at the same time. Tell an agent to take the next task and it moves the card to doing, comments as it works, and leaves the result where you can read it in the browser. Projects follow the code automatically: the agent finds the right board from the Git remote of the repository it is working in, and you can link more repositories to a project from its menu. Press n to add a task, search every project with a slash or Command-K, paste an image straight into a card or comment, and park half-formed ideas in an optional Backlog column that agents leave alone until you promote them. The whole board is one folder, and a private Git repository you own keeps it in step across a laptop, a desktop, and a Raspberry Pi, with conflicts resolved by choosing which side to keep. Statuses are yours to rename in the config file, the board exports cleanly to Markdown or JSON, and one click in the sidebar installs updates and restarts the service.

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.

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.

"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.

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.

Seven columns, one per day, hold your whole week of tasks in Will Be Done, and rebalancing a crowded Wednesday means dragging a card to Friday. Unfinished tasks keep their day and get a quiet yellow marker instead of piling into tomorrow as red overdue badges. The Today view narrows the screen to one day, and Stash holds the few tasks you want close at hand without picking a date. Projects get kanban boards with columns you define, such as Week, Month, Ideas, and Someday, and separate spaces keep work and personal planning apart. Tasks carry descriptions and checklists, and recurring tasks repeat daily, weekly, monthly, or yearly with custom intervals and end dates. Every device holds a full local database, so planning, completing, and rescheduling happen with no network at all, and changes sync across tabs and devices once the server is reachable. Vim keys such as h, j, k, and l move through everything, and a global quick-add shortcut in the Linux, macOS, and Windows desktop apps captures a task without leaving the window you are in. Todoist and TickTick imports bring existing projects along, and a token-protected HTTP API with OpenAPI docs lets scripts, cron jobs, and bots drop tasks straight into your stash.

Manage My Damn Life is a personal productivity platform and CalDAV task manager that gives individuals and teams a full-featured web workspace for coordinating todos, calendar agendas, and project schedules without relying on proprietary productivity software. Users can connect multiple CalDAV server backends including Nextcloud, Radicale, and Baikal to synchronize tasks, events, and subtasks across their self-hosted infrastructure. The interface offers multiple interactive perspectives, letting planners switch between nested task checklists, full monthly calendar grids, and dynamic Gantt chart roadmaps with customizable timeline scales. Keyboard-driven operators can rapidly log action items via intuitive Quick Add syntax that parses due dates, priority tiers, and category labels from inline text triggers. A versatile filter manager allows users to save custom query views matching due dates, completion statuses, parent task hierarchies, and color-coded labels. Team members can establish reusable task templates for recurring administrative workflows, assign multi-level checklist items, and manage individual calendar visibility across shared workspaces. System administrators can configure user authentication through native accounts or integrate enterprise Single Sign-On using OpenID Connect providers like Keycloak, Authentik, and Google. Client-side state caching accelerates navigation while background sync preserves CalDAV compliance.

Notes, tasks, and habits in one app, synced only to a server you run yourself. Notes are written in Markdown and render right in the list, so reading one costs no clicks. Tasks get a planned date and time, a duration, a checklist, and a timer. Weekly statistics show what got done and how long it took. Habits are measured by how overdue they are, not by an unbroken streak. A habit on a ten day interval that is two days late reads 120 percent. Charts track progress toward the target for today, this week, this month, this quarter, and this year. They also list the ten longest streaks and what you finish on each weekday. Categories and priorities span all three item types. Search reads note text and checklist items, not only titles. Filter by date, status, or how overdue a habit is, then sort with eleven keys. Pick from 26 themes in dark and light mode and 20 languages, with full keyboard and screen reader support. Import and export JSON, YAML, TSV, or Markdown, or bring in a Google Keep Takeout ZIP. Native apps for Windows, Linux, macOS, iOS, and Android sync with your server. The single-user Docker server also serves an OpenAPI spec, a Scalar UI, and a log page behind the same login.

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.
