Plane

Plane is an open source project management tool built as a modern alternative to Jira. It combines issue tracking, sprints, wikis, and multiple view types in a clean interface that does not feel like enterprise software.

Open Source and Self-Hostable

Plane is fully open source under the AGPL license. Self-host it on your own infrastructure for complete control over your data, or use the cloud version with a generous free tier.

What You Get

• Issue tracking - Create, assign, and track issues with custom properties
• Cycles (sprints) - Plan and execute time-boxed work iterations
• Modules - Group related issues into larger project themes
• Pages (wiki) - Document processes, decisions, and knowledge alongside your work
• Multiple views - Switch between kanban, list, spreadsheet, and calendar views
• GitHub sync - Link pull requests and automate issue updates
• Custom properties - Add fields that match your team's workflow

Still Growing

Plane launched in 2022 and is actively developed. It has fewer integrations and a smaller community than established tools, but the pace of development is fast and the feature set is already competitive.
