Planar: list, board, table and calendar views

What it is

Planar is an issue tracker with list, board, calendar and timeline views, docs, chat, time tracking, sprints, goals, dashboards and forms.

Planar: quick search with Ctrl+K and a task card

Local-first and offline

The interface runs on a local copy of your data, so it does not wait for the network, and edits made offline sync when you reconnect. Changes apply on your device first and sync in the background. Our acceptance budgets: local edit to redraw within 50 ms, switching projects within 100 ms.
