Manage

What is Manage?

Lightweight project workspace with task lists, calendar events, files and docs for small teams.

Who is Manage best for?

Manage is best for small developer teams that want a plain project tracker they can deploy, fork and change themselves.

• Small projects

  Task lists with priorities and assignees cover day-to-day work without a long setup.

• Shared deadlines

  Calendar events and milestones sit next to the tasks in each project.

• Finding past work

  Full-text search covers projects, tasks and documents, with filters by type, status or person.

• Teams that customise

  The TypeScript and Next.js code is open, so you can fork it and add what your team needs.

How much does Manage cost?

Manage is free: the AGPL-3.0 code runs on your own server, and the maker lists no paid plans for its hosted beta.

The maker also runs a hosted beta at managee.xyz and lists no paid plans for it. Full pricing on github.com. We checked these prices on 8 Nov 2026.
