What is it?

Plane is an open-source project management platform positioned as an alternative to tools like Jira and Linear. It covers issue tracking, time-boxed cycles, modules for splitting large projects into smaller parts, and saved filtered views for focusing on relevant work.

Beyond task tracking, Plane includes Pages for notes and documents with a rich text editor and AI capabilities, plus Analytics for visualizing progress across projects. Teams can use the hosted Plane Cloud service or install it on their own servers with Docker Compose or Kubernetes.

The stack is TypeScript on the frontend, built with React Router and Vite, and Python with Django on the backend, using PostgreSQL and Redis. The project is licensed under AGPL-3.0.
