The OpenProject platform provides a self-hosted project management system within LGF. It includes work packages, timelines, agile boards, wiki functionality, and collaboration features.
Overview
OpenProject is used as a Jira-like project tracking system on an LGF-managed host.
- Work package and task management
- Timelines and planning
- Agile boards
- Wiki and collaboration tools
This platform deploys the OpenProject web application along with its required backing services inside a single LGF bench.
