Roadmap and next version announcement
Dear community members,
During the last few months, we have seen noticeable users joining the PLANKA community. We feel honored about all this, and our dedication to making PLANKA a complete and battle-tested platform is greater than ever.
For many months, we have already been working on the next generation of PLANKA. The next Open Source version of PLANKA is getting bolder and much more powerful.
It will pack many new features, and below, we have assembled a roadmap of things that are already mostly battle-proof. Others are still being implemented and improved. And some things are left out intentionally because we have yet to decide whether they will make it into v2.
At this moment, several people are dedicating a big part of their lives to this. At the same time, we are trying to maintain and push forward the current version in the best way we can.
Here's a quick Roadmap for the upcoming version:
- Source code refactoring for better scalability
- Better security
- Cleanup when deleting any data
- Better user management
- Alternative list view for boards
- Archiving of cards
- Trashcan functionality
- New markdown editor with more features
- Much improved attachment handling
- Better notifications
- Custom fields
- Enhanced project overview
- Project favorites
- Board-wide subscriptions
- Better label colors
- Sourcecode syntax highlighting
- Extended search capabilities
- Public boards
- Copy/Paste for cards
- Multiple task lists
- Huge number of UI enhancements
- Increased UI responsiveness
We want to make sure to deliver something awesome.
Without our community, this would never have been possible. Thank you all so much for your support 🙏
Hello @meltyshev, this v2 sounds awesome !
Can you give us any indication of a possible release date? Are you planning an alpha and/or beta so that we can test and contribute too ?
Thanks for your work !
Only thing I can say is it's still some months away.
We haven't decided about things like beta stage releases yet. But right now we tend to relase a fully working release version, since the V2 dev version is already being tested on a daily basis and beyond. Best thing we can say right now is simply.... stay tuned
We haven't decided about things like beta stage releases yet.
Maybe create beta's branch)?
Unfortunately the publicly accessible boards by link are a must-have for us to switch over from trello. Any chance that dev progress on V2 will be available soon on a beta or alpha branch or anything in that direction? We are currently struggling to find an alternative until the trello deadline that works for us
Public board are on our roadmap but not fully implemented yet. We are planning a release as fast as we can but currently there's simply too much workload to be able to tell an exact date. Stay tuned.
Thank you for sharing this kind of information
It would be awesome to link issues if they exist to this one, so that we can follow any progress and maybe help for some issues
I didn't even notice this post about a v2, sounds interesting. Though I do want to ask about how many people there are in regards to the project that are actively developing? I know this is a passion project and ultimately open source but I'm just curious. :)
In the background this is a team effort of different companies now. Once we go public with the new version it will become quite obvious that this project has gone from passion to purpose for us. Simply stay tuned and thank you so much for all the interest in Planka.
Hi! I noticed that there hasn't been much activity on the repo in the past 6 months, apart from a few translations. I'm curious about why the "v2" isn't public yet—is there something you're keeping under wraps? I want to contribute and improve the project, but if it's being worked on secretly and the same tasks are being duplicated, I'm concerned about potentially working in vain.

I honestly can't wait to see what has been accomplished, Plankanban is one of the many things I rely on to keep track of what I'm doing etc. Trello is nice and all but it's got a lot of bloat to it.
Okay, it seems like another repo is in process of v2 which is kind of unexpected. I hope the migration from v1 to v2 is smooth enough while my Trello board is going to be read only after 20th May and I need to migration to planka before the deadline.
Hello!
I want to say thank you for the product, it is very cool!
We moved to it from Trello, but we really miss push notifications and search by boards/tasks Are there any deadlines for implementation?
Thanks!
- Increased UI responsiveness
That made me chuckle, considering v1 already feels snappier than anything I've tried. Can't wait for v2.
One major feature preventing me from switching over (from Vikunja) is seeing tasks/cards from across multiple projects in one view. For example, I would like to see what's assigned to me, what's due, or a specific tag regardless of where the card is.
Is that by any chance something planned or considered for v2?
Isn't this "hidden v2" causing a lot of duplicate work? Why not push it (to a separate branch) so that the community can collaborate on it?
v2 will be released when it's done. We would have no spare time to answer any questions or maintain pull request and a clean codebase and are occupied with managing the current open source version while integrating some of the current community wishes in v2 as well "on the fly" while we speak.
v2 is still some time away and will be a full fletched and already battle tested product available to the community. From there on people are welcome to migrate and join development.
