What is Planka?

Planka's Helm chart wakes up with 2.3.0 and 2.3.1 a day apart, still without notes.

The entries tracked for Planka, the self-hosted Kanban board, are Helm chart releases for deploying it on Kubernetes. After three months of quiet, chart 2.3.0 landed on November 4 and 2.3.1 the next day, each with the same one-line description and no change notes.

What is Ever Teams?

Ever Teams tags dozens of versions a day; most are fixes and test changes.

Ever Teams tags several releases a day. On 12 November 0.196 added a Jira Cloud integration section, timer notes and a Workspace settings page, and 0.197 added a due-date calendar, drag-to-reschedule and a Table layout for team tasks. The releases tagged around midnight on 13 November are small: a dismissable newsletter card, spelling-list and test fixes, a dependency bump, Docs export fixes, and in 0.199.0 a keyboard shortcut to assign tasks.

Planka vs Ever Teams: editorial side-by-side

P5.0

Planka's Helm chart wakes up with 2.3.0 and 2.3.1 a day apart, still without notes.

◆ Current state

The entries tracked for Planka, the self-hosted Kanban board, are Helm chart releases for deploying it on Kubernetes. After three months of quiet, chart 2.3.0 landed on November 4 and 2.3.1 the next day, each with the same one-line description and no change notes.

◆ Where it's heading

The chart moves in bursts: a minor version followed quickly by a patch, as with 2.0.2 and 2.0.3 in February. Without notes, the feed shows deployment upkeep, not the app's feature direction.

◆ Prediction

A quick patch after a minor suggests 2.3.0 had a deployment bug; whether 2.3 tracks a new Planka app release is not visible here.

E5.0

Ever Teams tags dozens of versions a day; most are fixes and test changes.

◆ Current state

Ever Teams tags several releases a day. On 12 November 0.196 added a Jira Cloud integration section, timer notes and a Workspace settings page, and 0.197 added a due-date calendar, drag-to-reschedule and a Table layout for team tasks. The releases tagged around midnight on 13 November are small: a dismissable newsletter card, spelling-list and test fixes, a dependency bump, Docs export fixes, and in 0.199.0 a keyboard shortcut to assign tasks.

◆ Where it's heading

The project ships through an automated release loop that tags every merged change, so version numbers say little about scope. Real features still arrive every day or two, aimed at task views, time tracking and integrations with other project tools.

◆ Prediction

Expect the version count to keep climbing quickly, with the occasional release adding a task view or integration among many fix-only tags.
