Alternative to Trello

Planka is a Trello-inspired kanban board project management tool. Its simple UI enables visual task progress tracking using cards and lists with drag-and-drop interaction.

  • Kanban boards with drag-and-drop card movement between lists
  • Card management with descriptions, checklists, labels, due dates, and attachments
  • Member management with card assignment and project-level permissions
  • Real-time sync reflecting changes instantly to all team members
  • Markdown support in card descriptions
  • Multi-language UI supporting 20+ languages

Built with React, Node.js, and PostgreSQL, Planka deploys via Docker for easy self-hosting. It provides a focused Trello alternative for teams seeking simple kanban management without unnecessary feature bloat on their own infrastructure.
