I am using Kanboard! It works great for me!
I have a Project for each of the larger areas I work in (e.g. home, homelab, club, photography, etc...) In that project there are 5 lanes: 1. Buy/sell (Basically only all the acquisitions I need to make for moving forward) 2. Planned (All the stuff I read about, that I will probably want to try someday)(By far the largest lane...) 3. In progress (The stuff I am actively working on or the stuff that needs to be done in one or two days) 4. Floating (Stuff that is basically finished, but which needs minor adjustments during the first weeks) 5. Finished (pretty self explanatory
EDIT It has drag & drop, which for me is the most important feature :D
I found kanboard to be the easiest self hosted project management solution.
I used to use Redmine but I hated installing and updating it, everytime I had to do that it would cost me a day (or more), That is one reason I hated all that Ruby on Rails shit and promised myself to never ever use anything Ruby crap on my server again. Thank goodness, I am clean from Ruby stink now and I feel like a new person. Now I have the same hatred towards Python hosted solutions.
Anyway rants aside, that is why I think Kanboard deservers a try, and it is self contained, you can move between servers easily.
I have been using Linux for almost 20 years and even I don't want to go through all that to use it. :)
There's a lot of effort to setup but even then it's kind of painful to use it.
I offered it only because of the restrictions they mentioned.
Other options for this are Flox, https://github.com/devfake/flox and tinyMediaManager, https://github.com/tinyMediaManager/tinyMediaManager
However, I use a kanban board software to track that stuff. Similar to Trello, if you have heard of that. The particular system I use is KanBoard from https://kanboard.org/
I use kanboard.org. Hosted on HestiaCP. I wouldn't ever have it any other way.
On HestiaCP, I prefer nginx without apache. I think that it's faster. At least servermom.org benchmarked it about a decade ago, before VestaCP turned into HestiaCP.
Thanks for this! 2FA looks impossible for me to do right now since I'm not wanting to tackle mail services or servers right now. But I'm in desperate need for a SSO with 8 separate logins so oh well.
The nginx stuff (or at least I think it's nginx lol) is definitely useful to see! Did you have any problems with uploading files or something of that nature with the Authelia configs? Was going to put Authelia in front of Wiki.js and Kanboard if I could manage it and I upload PDFs and images all of the time.
If you could also link me the videos again, that'd be great! I think in your Reddit cuts, the links disappeared!
In America, yes, once a person has been burned by management too many times. For kanban, we use kanboard (https://kanboard.org/) but paper and pen to track are fine too. For costs, take the time you spend maintaining this old hardware and multiple it by your hourly rate. Estimate a number for the year.
Not that I'm aware of.
This might in part be explained by the fact that Kanban is typically meant to be used in a collaborative work environment, by teams. This often means either a physical kanban in a public space, or a web-based kanban... and even as a personal offline kanban, the amount of things you must take into account to be able to match even Kanboard's basic featureset is daunting.
Unless you're thinking of the simplest forms of personal kanban, that is (what we often see as the three-column "Backlog / WIP / Done" example).
Arguably though, you could consider implementing an optional "kanban" view in Getting Things GNOME (maybe even as a plugin) where various tags and/or statuses are used to match with the columns/rows bidirectionnally, that would be really cool technologically.
While Trello is free, it's definitely underpowered in terms of project management software. It's definitely moreso a glorified TODO list display.
If you have a server that you are willing to install and manage software on, I'd definitely recommend kanboard for a more agile kanban board-type system. I have experience managing and deploying that semi-professionally, and it's super stable.
Otherwise you can look at the awesome self-hosted list for other options.
Self-hosted, tulajdonképpen egy kanban tábla. A taskokhoz és subtaskokhoz lehet időt rögzíteni, ill. maga is tud számolni start-stop módon.
Tud public linket a boardokhoz, amit nézegethet a megrendelő, a végén pedig excelbe is lehet exportálni a taskokat, idővel együtt.
I have successfully used kanboard. It is not super performant but if you do not use it with more than few people (or alone) it is fast enough with several projects.
The awesome thing is it's simplicity and still you can use plugins to extend functionality. If you want a Telegram Bot to notify you about ongoing things just use the according plugin. Multiple assignments? No problem.
Kanban for me is the best method to keep track on important tasks and also constantly work on them until I finish things.
Setup is very easy (<30min if you already have a machine with SSH) and it will not get in your way. Very refreshing coming from a Jira-dominated world.
Ideal solution:
Two physical servers, used for Hyper-V
Two Windows Server VMs on each physical host for a total of four VMs
One each host, one Windows Server VM for AD, DNS, DHCP
One of the remaining Windows Server VMs for files and print server
One VM for other services like backup etc
Add Linux VMs for things like Bookstack, Kanboard, other web servers etc.
I also tried wekan and had trouble setting it up, didn't want to fiddle around in troubleshooting, instead found kanboard, checks all the boxes I have.
Multi user support, also is self hostable on a web server or docker. I am using it in a docker environment.
Is the structure (columns) of your multiple projects different from each other? If not, you could simply use Kanboard (it's simple, open-source, and you can hack the CSS with the "custom CSS" admin setting if you need to hide more UI widgets) with swimlanes (rows) for each project, in a single board.
Now, this will obviously only work if you enforce WIP/limits on the number of cards per column per row, because if you have a huge multi-hundred-cards backlog in a project, that's going to bury the other swimlanes behind a kilometer of scrolling... but then, this would be true of any "combined view of multiple boards" anyway.
Installed Kanboard locally and works pretty well, give it a try :)
Got a Docker container ready to use as well !
Simple design, fills all my "needs" checklist : kanboard
Simplest, easiest, get kanboard.org self hosted somewhere and manage your activity in kanban style. Create projects for different categories. Inside each project, create tickets for each product you buy/have. For each ticket you can add description, comments, attach images/documents whatever so basically you can keep track of all the stuff related to each product. Then with the aid of the columns you can manage whats to do, in progress and done.
I don't know anything else more specific for your case, but I always use the simplest tools and apply them in the required context.
The one thing that gets my goat about Trello and most Kanban systems is they don't let you set the background color of the whole card... only add them as "labels" which are barely noticeable to the point of being worthless.
Seems to be the same direction OneNote is going too unfortunately.
https://kanboard.org/ supports it, but I had some other issues with it so ended up going back to Trello.
Develop your own template in Excel, with colour coding and flags indicating priorities. One pager kind of sheet is good to list 10-15 projects.
Jira is one of the tool you can try, taking the Agile way for a Project or set of Tasks to manage. This is paid, but worthy.
https://tasks.office.com Microsoft Planner, in case your company has o365 subscription.
Microsoft Project, though prioritising tasks will not be easy when the list goes long.
Lastly, try https://kanboard.org/ ; I have not tried this specific even though Jira tool contains Kannan Boards to manage projects/tasks.
Sounds like a KanBan style method may work for you.
I've been meaning to try out Wekan myself, but haven't deployed as yet.
I have tried https://kanboard.org/ in the past and it worked for the simple testing I did, but I lost whatever I had it installed to and didn't try it again.
If you can define columns and create your tasks overall alongside adding subtasks to each one, then maybe this style work management/todo creating/moving/completing could work for you?
Kanboard was my tool of choice.
I also periodically scrape the Indeed API for postings in my area that have keyword matches which interest me. I stuff all that into Elasticsearch and make pretty charts and wordclouds to help see skills are in-demand for my area.
If you have the ability to run a local VM on your workstation I just set up Kanboard and created a DNS record on my personal domain to point to an internal IP. I can go to kanboard.personaldomain.com and it loads up the web interface from my VM and I can manage projects/tasks from there.
It has support for different tasks in a project(could be tasks inside a single request in your case), you can create any columns you want, and it you can set due dates. I love it so far!
We use kanboard for high level and link to spicework tickets if needed for details:
This allows us to track time and give high level overview to management. Keeping technical details in spiceworks
There are specific installation instructions for Ubuntu already on kanboard.org
https://docs.kanboard.org/en/latest/admin_guide/ubuntu_installation.html
Also, if you're self-hosting stuff, give Kanboard a try as an alternative to Trello. I've been using it myself over the past 6 months and have gotten a lot of use out of it (I have a lot of web space being unused so that's why I use it). Lots of good stuff over in /r/selfhosted for dev stuff/planning/etc, too. Also consider Riot.im if you're more privacy-oriented and not keen on Discord or Slack. (Ninja edit: Yes I know, IRC too)
