Manage team work and sprints in one place as an alternative to Jira and Linear
Handle task lists, sprints, documents, and bug tracking on a single screen to reduce team confusion. Designed as an alternative to commercial tools like Jira or Linear for teams that want to manage data sovereignty directly. It visually organizes project progress and ideas so that all team members work within the same context.
Work and sprints at a glance
Plane focuses on efficiently creating and managing work items. A rich text editor with file upload support, sub-properties, and related issue references clarify the context of work. The Cycles feature allows tracking sprint cycle progress with various tools such as burndown charts. Complex projects can be divided into Modules to reduce management burden, and Views allow filtering to display only the necessary issues.
From ideas to execution
Plane Pages is a space for recording and organizing ideas, providing AI features and a rich text editor. It supports text formatting, image insertion, and hyperlink addition, and allows converting notes directly into actionable work items. The Analytics feature provides real-time insights into all data within Plane, helping to visualize trends and remove obstacles. This supports the continuous forward movement of projects.
Installation and operation
Plane can be used in two ways. The fastest method is to create a free account on Plane Cloud to start immediately without managing infrastructure. If complete control over data and infrastructure is required, it can be installed and run on a self-hosted server. Deployment guides via Docker and Kubernetes are provided, and the instance manager can configure instance settings through God mode. For local development environment setup, refer to the CONTRIBUTING document.
Things to check before use
This project follows the GNU Affero General Public License v3.0 license. If considering self-hosting, understanding of Docker or Kubernetes environments is required, and if data security vulnerabilities are found, they should be responsibly reported to security@plane.so rather than public issues. The community is actively operated through GitHub Discussions and forums, and contributions can be made in various ways such as bug reports, feature requests, and documentation improvements. The appropriate method between Cloud or Self-hosted should be selected considering the team's size and data sovereignty requirements.
