Overview
Planka is a collaborative Kanban board for managing projects and tasks. You create projects, boards, lists and cards and move them with drag and drop, and every change syncs to other users in real time. It's self-hosted, with a paid Pro edition for larger teams.
What it does well
Planka has a Markdown editor for card descriptions, notifications through more than 100 providers, and full internationalisation. It deploys with Docker and has an API. Planka Pro adds mobile apps, a dashboard across projects, calendar, timeline and map views, templates, guest roles, SSO and PDF export, and upgrades an existing installation in place.
Why it’s in the collection
Planka is a clean, Trello-style board a team can run on its own server. It's under its own fair-code license, which allows internal use but not offering it as a paid service.
License
Planka uses its own Fair Use License (the PLANKA Community License), a fair-code license based on n8n's Sustainable Use License, not an OSI one. You can use and modify it for personal use and inside your own organisation, but you may not host it for others for money, white-label it, or use it to power paid services. Pro and Enterprise features need a paid license.
