PLANKA is a self-hosted, Kanban-style project management application for teams, built with JavaScript, React, and Node.js and deployable via Docker. It offers collaborative boards with drag-and-drop, real-time syncing, markdown card descriptions, notifications via 100+ providers, and multilingual support, with paid Pro/Enterprise editions for advanced features.

Use cases

  • self-host a kanban board for my team
  • trello alternative I can run on my own server
  • agile project management tool with real-time collaboration
  • manage tasks with drag-and-drop boards
  • open-source project tracking with docker deployment
  • private kanban board for a homelab

When to choose

  • you want a self-hosted Trello-like tool with full data control
  • your team needs real-time collaborative kanban boards
  • you want a docker-based, easy-to-deploy project management app
  • you need multilingual support and notification integrations

When to avoid

  • you need OSI-approved open-source licensing (PLANKA is fair-code, not open source)
  • you require SSO, guest roles, or advanced reporting without paying for Pro
  • you need heavy-duty work management like Jira with sprints and reporting
  • you want a fully managed cloud solution without self-hosting
