Comments and Reviews
A lightweighted KanBan system that can be self-hosted. I like the simple and minimalist style interface. Support IMAP authentication and email notification. There is a plenty of plugins available. It do not have a native APP in android or iOS, but it's fine for me, as KanBan is not designed for using in a small screen.
If you able to deploy it on your own host / server, then you have a free of charge tool, which is easy to handle, quick and effective, simple to handle, with a lot of options. I really recommed it.
I´m trying to install the program but i don´t understand the instructions: 3- Check if the directory data is writeable by the web server user 4- With your browser go to
Tagging this service as "online" is dishonest because it does not clearly convey that hosting it online is your own responsibility!
It's as online as running your own e-mail service versus having an e-mail with any of the free providers (Gmail, Hotmail, Yahoo etc)
If you have the hosting resources and the technical skills to run this software on a server, then you've got yourself a 'free' service. Neglecting to account for those two is what I consider a 'dishonest' description.
Fairly easy to install, most issues have been addressed or resolved on Github/Docs, simple and intuitive design, not many dependencies (works without Node.js installed), pretty slim and a great self-hosted alternative to Trello.
The best kanban online tool! Thanks to Frederic!
