Devlane

Devlane is a modern project management platform built for development teams. It organizes work into workspaces and projects, tracks issues with assignees, labels, priorities, and parent/child links, and groups work into time-boxed cycles (sprints) and modules for clearer scope.

The project positions itself as an open-source alternative to Jira, Linear, Monday, ClickUp, and Plane, focusing on a fast, opinionated workflow rather than feature breadth. It includes lightweight docs (pages), rich-text comments powered by TipTap, activity feeds, saved views, and basic analytics for tracking progress.

The backend is written in Go (Gin + GORM) with PostgreSQL, Redis, and optional RabbitMQ and MinIO for queues and object storage. The web UI is a React + Vite + TypeScript single-page app styled with Tailwind CSS. Devlane can be self-hosted via Docker or run from source, though it requires more infrastructure than lightweight alternatives (PostgreSQL and Redis are mandatory, with RabbitMQ and MinIO for full functionality).

A note on licensing: Devlane is released under a custom Devlane Software License, MIT-style use and modification rights, but selling the software or offering it as a hosted service to third parties is prohibited. This makes the codebase source-available rather than OSI-approved open source.
