Self-hostable, privacy-friendly productivity tool. Jinear is a project management and calendar app for small teams or individuals who prefer to self-host. Originally built for personal use, it's now open source and ready for anyone to use or customize.
Hi everyone!
I’m the maker of Jinear. I originally built it as a side project to manage tasks for myself, my wife’s PhD planning, and a friend’s small business. Over time, it grew into something more complete.
I didn’t get traction as a product, so I decided to open source it for others to self-host freely.
If you have questions, feedback, or ideas, I’d love to hear from you. Thanks for checking it out!
Here's the repo
https://gitlab.com/140crafts/use...
I currently self-host my own Jinear instance on a Mac Mini at home. Also using jinear's custom domain support for pages to host my personal website (https://cagdastunca.com) and jinear product updates (https://forum.jinear.co). I'm keeping registration open on my jinear instance(https://jinear.co) for demo purposes.
This tool can be the backbone of the first fully autonomous company! The AI CEO can use it to interact with all the agents.
Great to see open-source solutions like Jinear enhancing productivity! If you're considering expanding its capabilities or integrating with no-code platforms, I'd be glad to collaborate. At Prime Dev, we focus on building efficient, no-code solutions tailored to user needs.
Nice UI. But it seems like a bit overwhelming at first bird's-eye view. Try to make it more simpleler
Right now, I feel the easiest task management is just my notebook—nothing fancy. I write down my tasks in the morning and glance at them again at the end of the day
Jinear sounds like a fantastic tool, especially for those who value privacy and prefer self-hosting. The fact that it started as a personal project but grew into an open-source, customizable productivity solution is impressive. Are there plans to add any collaboration features for teams, like shared calendars or task assignments?
Love the blend of project management and calendar in a privacy-friendly, self-hostable package.
