Taiga

App in the BluixApps catalog

What it is

Taiga is a project management platform for agile teams — Scrum + Kanban boards, user stories, sprints, epics, wiki, time tracking. Strong on agile methodology specifically (vs OpenProject's broader PM scope). Python/Django-based.

For agile engineering teams who find Jira too heavy and Kanboard too simple, Taiga is the focused-on-agile sweet spot.

What it's for

  • Agile project management — Scrum + Kanban methodologies
  • User story management — story breakdown, estimation, sprints
  • Epics + roadmap — multi-sprint strategic planning
  • Burndown charts — sprint velocity tracking
  • Multi-project orgs — portfolio across teams

Who it's for

  • Agile dev teams rejecting Jira's complexity
  • Scrum-organized startups running formal sprints
  • Indie SaaS founders managing personal product backlog
  • Educational orgs teaching agile methodology
  • Privacy-bound orgs under sovereignty mandates

Tips & operations

  • Persistent Postgres + media — both essential
