What's neat about the above one is it's a single offline html file that you open in your browser and everything is saved to local storage (but it has a JSON export / import feature for more robust backups).
Of course that means it's really only usable for 1 person, but if you're a solo developer, it's a breath of fresh air to just open a simple html file without needing to run a service to use it.
It's not the prettiest tool but it's very usable. I've been using it to manage a large personal side project. I made a video on that here: https://nickjanetakis.com/blog/an-open-source-and-fully-offline-browser-based-kanban-board https://nickjanetakis.com/blog/an-open-source-and-fully-offl...
- huhtenberg 7y agoIn the same vein - https://nullboard.io/preview https://nullboard.io/preview or https://github.com/apankrat/nullboard https://github.com/apankrat/nullboard
- alpaca128 7y agoOh, that's exactly what I was looking for. Most kanban software is centered around multiple users and all the cumbersome setup that comes with that assumption.
- AstroJetson 7y agoI like that a lot. It would be super nice if I could change the background of the items. That way I could color code things that really need to get taken care of NOW.
- hermitcrab 7y agoIf you are looking for a personal Kanban application where you can colour the cards, please see: https://www.hyperplan.com https://www.hyperplan.com (I am the author)
- AstroJetson 7y agoThanks! I liked nullboard pretty minimal design and that the tasks can be one line or multiline. Most of the kanaban tools look like post it notes, and I liked that the tasks were mininimal size. All I was missing is to be able to stick one of 4-8 colors on the background of the box. I'll have some time to look at hyperplan, thanks for the pointer
- hermitcrab 7y ago-You can colour the background of the card according to any property of the card (e.g. its priority or the date due) -Cards can have any number of properties -You can store various 'views' (e.g. view 1 is x=status,y=person,colour=priority, view 2 is x=person,y=department,colour=due date)
- mlok 7y agoSo simple and elegant. I have adopted it. Thank you !
- heyflyguy 7y agoI really like this, and after reading about the guy who lost his personal trello to his former employer...I am motivated to try this.
- A4ET8a8uTh0 7y agoThank you for this. Not everyone needs to setup yet another service for simple project management.
- scared2 7y agoI think it is usable enough. Specially if you worry about privacy this is a good tool. A thing most people don't like about Trello is that it is not encrypted on the server side.
