It is hard for someone, who spends a lot of time in front of the computer coding, to get used to traditional To-Do lists. Sure, they get the job done,
but they can be better. A To-Do list does not show your progress unless you are willing to spend hours creating sub-items. A To-Do list lacks the necessary
features like the current state of an issue and an enforced deadline, to be considered useful in the 21st century.
π_board is a To-Do list as well, but on steroids. It accurately displays the progress of an issue through states, allows users to list all of their issues and filter and sort
them according to their deadlines and gives everyone a chance to plan not only their days, but their months, years and lives. Because of the uncomplicated user interface, switching
to a π_board is as easy as putting the pen down. Additionally, it is open-source and free to use, meaning no adds, no premium-plans and no down-payment is needed to boost your
planning.
P.S: There is not a corporate behind the scenes collecting your data and selling it either. What more could you ask for ?
P.P.S: If you would like to contribute to development, you can create check out the GitHub repository of the project or buy me a coffee :)
Pi_Board: Your independent and open-source Personalized Issue Board.
This project is now in Phase 2, and can be used to add and list issues using a browser, cURL or AI. claude-config file will be added soon to connect the MCP server to the AI client.
The goal of this project is to provide individuals with a kanban style to-do list that allows them to plan tasks.
Phase 1: A Functional pi-board that relies on java spring framework + database integration. Set up is done by cloning the project.
- Registration
- Login
- All Issues Page
Phase 2: A Functional pi-board that relies on java spring framework + database integration. Set up is done by cloning the project.
- (NEW!) MCP Integration*
- (NEW!) Direct Endpoint Methods
- Add Issue Page
*: With MCP integration, the server can be connected an AI e.g. Claude Desktop, to navigate the pi-board using AI.
Phase 3: A Functional pi-board that relies on java spring framework + database integration. Set up is done by cloning the project.
- Sort issues according to their states
- Reworked all issues page
- Improved UI
To start using the pi-board in Phase 1, users need to install:
