[Focalboard](https://www.focalboard.com) is an open source, multilingual, self-hosted project management tool that's an alternative to Trello, Notion, and Asana.
|
|
|
|
It helps define, organize, track and manage work across individuals and teams. Focalboard comes in two main editions:
|
|
|
|
* **[Personal Desktop](https://www.focalboard.com/download/personal-edition/desktop/)**: A stand-alone single-user Mac, Windows, or Linux desktop app for your todos and personal projects.
|
|
|
|
* **[Mattermost Boards](https://www.focalboard.com/download/mattermost/)**: A self-hosted or cloud server for your team to plan and collaborate.
|
|
|
|
Focalboard can also be installed as a standalone [personal server](https://www.focalboard.com/download/personal-edition/ubuntu/) for development and personal use.
|
|

## Building the server
|
|
|
|
Most development can be done on the Personal Server edition. Please refer to the [Developer's Tips & Tricks](https://mattermost.github.io/focalboard/dev-tips) for more detailed steps. Here's a summary:
|
|
|
|
First, install basic dependencies:
|
|
* Go 1.15+
|
|
* Node 10+ and npm
|
|
* Mingw64 on Windows
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
make prebuild
|
|
make
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Running and testing the server
|
|
|
|
To start the server, run `./bin/focalboard-server`
|
|
|
|
Server settings are in config.json (or the path specified with --config).
|
|
|
|
Open a browser to [http://localhost:8000](http://localhost:8000) to start.
|
|
|
|
## Building and running standalone desktop apps
|
|
|
|
You can build standalone apps that package the server to run locally against SQLite:
|
|
|
|
* Mac:
|
|
* `make mac-app`
|
|
* run `mac/dist/Focalboard.app`
|
|
* *Requires: macOS 11.3+, Xcode 13.2.1+*
|
|
* Linux:
|
|
* Install webgtk dependencies
|
|
* `sudo apt-get install libgtk-3-dev`
|
|
* `sudo apt-get install libwebkit2gtk-4.0-dev`
|
|
* `make linux-app`
|
|
* uncompress `linux/dist/focalboard-linux.tar.gz` to a directory of your choice
|
|
* run `focalboard-app` from the directory you have chosen
|
|
* *Tested with: Ubuntu 18.04*
|
|
* Windows:
|
|
* Open a git-bash prompt
|
|
* `make win-wpf-app`
|
|
* run `cd win-wpf/msix && focalboard.exe`
|
|
* *Requires: Windows 10, [Windows 10 SDK](https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/downloads/sdk-archive/) 10.0.19041.0, .NET 4.8 developer pack*
|
|
* Docker:
|
|
* To run it locally from Offical Image
|
|
* `docker run -it -p 80:8000 mattermost/focalboard`
|
|
* To Build it for your Current Architecture
|
|
* `docker build -f docker/Dockerfile .`
|
|
* To Build it for a custom Architecture (Experimental)
|
|
* `docker build -f docker/Dockerfile --platform linux/arm64 .`
|
|
|
|
Cross-compilation currently isn't fully supported, so please build on the appropriate platform. Refer to the GitHub Actions workflows (build-mac.yml, build-win.yml, build-ubuntu.yml) for the detailed list of steps on each platform.
|
|
|
|
## Unit tests
|
|
|
|
Before checking-in commits, run: `make ci`, which is similar to the ci.yml workflow and includes:
|
|
* Server unit tests: `make server-test`
|
|
* Webapp eslint: `cd webapp; npm run check`
|
|
* Webapp unit tests: `cd webapp; npm run test`
|
|
