Trello has introduced many new features while straying from its original, streamlined vision that many dedicated users want restored. Most software evolves constantly, making a desire to return to an older version unusual. Plenty of users think Trello, owned by Atlassian since 2014, has lost its focus on streamlined approachability. An engineer from England created a robust reimagining of the original Trello concept as a fully open-source service. The project aims to provide a simple, frills-free, productive experience aligned with Trello's design from a decade ago. The offering targets like-minded enthusiasts who prefer minimalism.
In an era where most software is in a near-constant state of evolution, the very idea of turning back the clock may sound crazy. But plenty of folks think Trello-the multipurpose organization tool owned by Atlassian since 2014-has lost its focus on the streamlined approachability that once made it worth using. An engineer from England is hoping to fix that.
He's built a robust reimagining of the original Trello concept as a fully open-source service. His goal is to offer a way for any like-minded Trello enthusiasts-or anyone who might appreciate what Trello used to represent-a simple, frills-free, productive experience more in line with the Trello of a decade ago. The early-rate deadline for Fast Company's Most Innovative Companies Awards is Friday, September 5, at 11:59 p.m. PT. Apply today.
