Web and mobile work management platform to organize and track team projects and tasks
Discover top open-source software, updated regularly with real-world adoption signals.

Fast, self-hosted project management platform that stays out of your way
Kaneo delivers a clean, performant, self-hosted project management solution, balancing powerful features with simplicity. Deploy via Docker Compose or Helm, keep full control of your data.

Kaneo is aimed at small-to-medium teams, developers, and organizations that value data sovereignty and a distraction-free interface. If you prefer to run your own infrastructure and want a tool that scales from a handful of users to dozens without unnecessary bloat, Kaneo fits the bill.
The platform provides Kanban-style boards, issue tracking, and project roadmaps through a clean React UI. All data is stored in PostgreSQL, and the backend is built with TypeScript for speed and reliability. Performance-focused design ensures rapid page loads even under load.
Getting started is as simple as a single docker compose up -d command, which launches the API, web front-end, and a PostgreSQL container. For production or Kubernetes environments, a Helm chart is available, supporting custom ingress, TLS, and scaling configurations. Environment variables let you control authentication (JWT), database connections, and registration policies.
When teams consider Kaneo, these hosted platforms usually appear on the same shortlist.
