# Jinear

> Jinear is an open-source (AGPL-3.0), self-hostable task management and
> calendar suite for indie developers and small teams. Install the whole stack
> with a single Docker Compose command, no per-user pricing, and your data stays on
> your own server. A hosted version is also available.

## What Jinear does

- Tasks: lists, labels, checklists and reminders.
- Boards: unlimited boards, drag things where they belong.
- Calendar: a built-in calendar, plus Google Calendar sync.
- Notes: rich-text notes in shared notebooks, with tags and offline drafts.
- Files: attach files to tasks, create folders, upload data, and define fine-grained access controls.

## Pricing

- Free: unlimited tasks, boards and calendar for workspaces of up to 3 people. No card required.
- Team: $24.90/mo flat for unlimited people, with file attachments, team calendar sharing and priority support.
- Self-hosted: free forever under AGPL-3.0, with no feature gating.

The Team price is flat rather than per seat: a team of 4 and a team of 40 pay exactly the same.

## Self-hosting

Jinear runs as a single Docker Compose stack on your own server. You keep your own
storage and backups, and self-hosted instances phone nothing home, not even install
counts.

## Blog posts

- [Workflow Statuses. Add Your Own, Drag Them Into Order.](https://jinear.co/blog/workflow-statuses-add-your-own-drag-them-into-order/) (2026-09-03): Adding, reordering, and deleting workflow statuses have worked on the server for a long time. The screen for them was never built, so none of it was reachable. Now you can add statuses, drag them into the order you want, and delete the ones you don't use.
- [Instance Settings. An Admin Panel for Self-Hosters.](https://jinear.co/blog/instance-settings-an-admin-panel-for-self-hosters/) (2026-08-27): Jinear had no way to close registration, no way to reset someone's password without a mail server, and no way to see what was on the instance. There's an admin panel now, at /admin, off by default, with one admin account defined in your .env.
- [Notes. The Last Missing Piece.](https://jinear.co/blog/notes-the-last-missing-piece/) (2026-08-01): Jinear had calendar, tasks, and files. Documentation had nowhere to live, so it squatted on tasks or ended up as a text file in storage. Notes fixes that, and I think it's the last main feature Jinear needs.
- [Release v0.1.1675. Self-Hosting Fixes: Uploads, Ports, and Reverse Proxies.](https://jinear.co/blog/self-hosting-fixes-uploads-ports-and-proxies/) (2026-07-26): File uploads that never finished, an installer that insisted on owning the standard web ports, and a service that always reported itself unhealthy. All three are fixed, and there are new docs for running Jinear behind your own proxy.
- [A Leaner Jinear: Dropped Features, a New PWA, and a Dedicated Site](https://jinear.co/blog/whats-new-leaner-jinear-pwa-and-marketing-site/) (2026-06-10): I trimmed Jinear down to its core. Removing projects, project Pages, custom domains, and chat, and split the old web app into an offline-capable PWA and a static marketing site.
