What is Ulmo?
Ulmo is an open-source, self-hosted alternative to Trello for kanban-style project management. It allows teams to create boards to visualize workflows and track progress across projects.
Some key features of Ulmo include:
- Flexible boards, lists, and cards for organizing tasks
- Drag-and-drop support for easily moving cards between lists
- Labeling and filtering options to categorize cards
- Due dates and checklists to manage card details
- Card comments for collaboration and discussion
- Attachments and activity feed showing card changes
As an open-source software, Ulmo offers more customization options compared to Trello. Users can host it on their own servers instead of relying on a third-party service. It supports LDAP/SAML integration for single sign-on and has a REST API for expanding integrations.
Ulmo is written in Elixir and ReactJS, making it fast and responsive. Its simple UI design focuses on clarity and ease-of-use over flashy features. Ulmo can be a great open-source option for teams that want the core kanban project management capabilities of Trello with more control over their data.
