Self-hosted alternatives

Open source alternatives to Jira

Jira is Atlassian's hosted issue tracker for software teams.

Original introduction

Jira is Atlassian's hosted issue tracker for software teams, and this page lists trackers a team can run on its own server instead. Before you move, ask whether you need a full tracker or something lighter. Every project below has an OSI licence and a commit within the last 12 months. Several also appear on the Asana and Linear pages, a sign they reach past bug tracking into general project work.

Published by Atlassian. The projects below are sorted by GitHub stars. Star counts and last commit dates are read from the public GitHub API. The line under each name is generated from the category, the licence, and whether the project can be self-hosted. Fetched . 5 of 5 have an OSI-approved SPDX licence, a commit in the last 12 months, and a repository GitHub has not archived.
