I would like to self host an OpenSource projectmanagement tool for our non profit association.
It shoud do the regular project management stuff like task, kanban board, meeting notes, contact management, etc. and it should also have a document repository.
I briefely checked
- Makeplane: no one click docker container (yeah, I’m a little bit lazy 🙃)
- Youtrack: not OpenSource
- OpenProject: no solution for documents
Do you have any further recommendations?
OpenProject has some nice solution for documents: https://www.openproject.org/docs/user-guide/documents/ and https://www.openproject.org/docs/user-guide/file-management/ . Aren’t these enough for you?
Also: OpenProject includes a good wiki for a project. It’s in many cases a better alternative to a document storage, since there is no “download - edit - upload” workflow, so there are no race conditions. (i.e. two people download a doc, edit the doc independently and whoever uploads last “wins” while deleting the previous uploaders changes.)
I had to use https://leantime.io/all-about-open-source-project-management/ and ended up not hating it. I think it checks all your boxes
While I prefer a bare docker compose, plane does basically have a one-click script to run it.
I’ve seen that. But then I need to spin up a VM. Nextcloud provides this AIO docker container…
I don’t think the requirements are any different. setup.sh just sets an ENV variable or two and then calls docker compose to get it running.

There are tons of it, it really depends on how much time are you willing to invest to set it up vs how many features you want. Taiga, kanboard and leantimes are all viable alternatives. My best bet would be redmine, with a couple of plugins it can provide everything you need and more. I don’t think there is a single docker container but there are a couple of prebuild VMs that we used successfully for a while and on the plus side is no feature are locked behind some subscription model like other powerful alternatives.
Thank you for all your replies! I really appreciate it 😀 I’ll try Nextcloud (the AIO container) with OpenProject. Or Leantime.
