What you give up vs monday.com

  • No multi-user support; data lives in a single browser's localStorage
  • No attachments, comments, due dates, or rich task metadata
  • No server-side persistence by default — data is lost if localStorage is cleared
  • No integrations with issue trackers, calendars, or external services

What you gain

  • • Full data ownership — self-host Nullboard on your own infrastructure.
  • • No per-seat SaaS bill (monday.com: minimum-seat requirements).
  • • Open-source code you can audit and extend (BSD-2-Clause).
