WeKan is an open‑source, self‑hosted kanban board application built with Meteor. It provides real‑time collaborative task management with customizable boards, lists, and cards.

Use cases

• manage personal to‑do list with a kanban board
• track project tasks across a team using boards and cards
• visualize workflow with swimlanes, lists and columns
• import Trello or other project data into an open‑source kanban app
• run a self‑hosted kanban server on Docker, Snap or a plain Linux install
• collaborate on tasks in real time with drag‑and‑drop editing
• create custom fields and automation rules for task management

When to choose

• You need a privacy‑focused, self‑hosted kanban solution with full source code access.
• You want extensive import/export support for many other kanban and project‑management tools.
• Real‑time collaboration and drag‑and‑drop UI are essential for your workflow.
• You prefer a free MIT‑licensed product that can run on Linux, Windows, macOS, Docker, or Snap.
• You require the ability to customize the server stack (Node, FerretDB, PostgreSQL, etc.).

When to avoid

• You need a full‑featured SaaS project‑management platform with built‑in SLAs and support contracts.
• Your organization requires advanced reporting, Gantt charts, or resource planning beyond basic kanban.
• You rely on a native mobile app with offline sync that WeKan does not provide out of the box.
• You need a solution tightly integrated with proprietary enterprise tools without open‑source licensing.
