Boards that stay readable
A card shows four things: its key, its title, who is on it, and one contextual chip. Labels are a 2px colour bar, not a row of pills. Drag between columns is optimistic and survives a restart.
devBoard is project tracking for freelancers and small dev teams — boards, epics, releases and time tracking in a native app that opens instantly and answers to your keyboard. No browser tab. No forty-field configuration screen you fill in once and never look at again.
You are four people. You do not need portfolios, workload heatmaps, custom automations or six view types you switched on once. What you need is to know what you are doing today, what is blocking the release, and where the last three hours went — without the tool becoming a second job.
A card shows four things: its key, its title, who is on it, and one contextual chip. Labels are a 2px colour bar, not a row of pills. Drag between columns is optimistic and survives a restart.
Three levels of work item — epic, task, subtask — plus releases and project-scoped labels, each with a screen of its own. The epic a card belongs to is visible on the board, not buried in a detail panel.
Start and stop a timer on the item you are already looking at. Comments and an auto-logged activity feed sit beside it, so the record of what happened writes itself.
Everything assigned to you as Overdue, Today, This week, Later and No date — plus a private scratch to-do list with reminders, for the errands that never deserved a ticket.
Build a filter once, save it, share it with the team. The same view drives the board and the list, so nobody has to rebuild a query to see what you were talking about.
Two people on the same board see each other's moves without refreshing — including work moving between columns and buckets, not just text changing in place. Drop the network and it catches up.
The desktop app is built around a command palette and a set of bare-key shortcuts, with a reference sheet one keystroke away. Window size and position survive a restart. On macOS there is a real menu bar.
devBoard is a native Flutter app on every platform it ships to. The desktop build is tuned for a pointer and a keyboard; the phone build is not the desktop layout with the sidebar taken off — rows, sheets and tap targets are its own.
Store links land here as each build clears review. There is no web version and there is not going to be one — the app is built to open in a fraction of a second and work with the network off.
Not quite. The app is feature-complete for v1 and the backend is running — what is left is packaging and store review for five platforms. This page will carry the download and store links as they clear.
No, deliberately. devBoard is a native app on all five platforms. A tracker you check twenty times a day should open instantly and keep working when the connection drops, and a browser tab is the wrong shape for that.
It is smaller on purpose. There are no portfolios, no automation builder, no custom field designer. You get boards, three levels of work item, releases, labels, saved views, comments, attachments and time tracking — and then it stops.
Both. Workspaces, teams, members and invites were in from the first version, not bolted on later. Freelancers running several clients get a workspace each; a small team shares one.
Pricing is not set yet. It will be posted here well before the apps ship, and it will be a plain number rather than a grid of seat tiers.
App Tube — a small studio. devBoard is a sibling to dev.log, which solves the other half of the same problem: remembering what you actually did.
