EOV Tasks v1.0.0

EOV Tasks is a small Jira-style task tracker in the browser: projects, tasks with an assignee and a due date, a board, time tracking, comments and notifications. It is for a small team that Jira is too big for, and for one person who wants their own work in order. The server is set up once — on your own Windows computer or on your own Linux server — and everyone else just opens the site.

A task on one page

Summary, description, assignee, priority, type (task or bug), due date and estimate. Files and pictures go in by drag and drop, pictures get previews. Comments, watchers and the History tab: who changed what, and when. There is no separate edit mode — click a field, change it, it is saved.

Board and list

Every project has two views. The Board has To Do, In Progress, Review and Done columns, and cards are dragged between them. The List is a table with filters by status, assignee, priority and due date, plus text search; a filtered list is a link you can send to a colleague.

Familiar time tracking

Estimate, logged and remaining — three bars on every task. When you log time you decide what happens to the remaining estimate: recalculate it, leave it, set a new one or reduce it by an amount. Your work shows what is on you, what you finished this week or month, and where you logged time.

The bell and watching

A task assigned to you, a reply in the comments, a status change — you get a notification. You can watch someone else's task, and its news comes to you as well. Open the task, and the news counts as read.

When two people edit the same thing

Every field is checked. If a colleague changed the due date while you were editing it, you see what was changed and by whom — nobody's edit disappears silently. The board does the same: if a card has already been moved, it tells you so.

Your computer or your server

No server needed: EOVTasks.exe sits in the tray by the clock and runs the site right on your computer. One switch lets colleagues on your local network in. Nothing to install.

For a team: a server archive for a Linux server, for a team of up to 15–20 people. It comes with HTTPS through Caddy, nightly backups and step-by-step instructions. People join through an invite link from the admin.

Apps made for Jira connect

EOV Tasks has a programming interface in the style of Jira Server (/rest/api/2) with personal tokens. Programs and scripts that can work with Jira connect to it with no changes: they read tasks, log time and leave comments. A token is revoked in a second, without changing your password.

Two languages, two themes

English or Russian — everyone picks their own, and it is kept in the account: one person works in English, another in Russian, on the same tasks. Light and dark theme. An illustrated manual opens on F1, and eight step-by-step lessons walk through everyday jobs: a task, a project, the bell, invitations, admin.

What it does not do

No sign-in with company accounts (SSO, LDAP, Google) — e-mail and password only. No e-mail is sent: notifications live in the bell, and invite links are passed on by hand. No subtasks, no links between tasks, no time reports for a period. The database is one SQLite file and one process: plenty for tens of people, not for hundreds. No import from Jira yet.
