## Description

Focalboard is an open-source project management tool and collaborative task organizer. It functions as a kanban board system where users define, track, and update project tasks within a shared digital workspace.

The platform is designed for self-hosted team collaboration, allowing organizations to manage project goals and workflows on their own private infrastructure. It provides a visual environment for mapping out complex projects and coordinating team efforts without the use of proprietary software.

The software covers project task management and visual workflow organization through the use of boards, lists, and calendars. These tools enable users to monitor progress across teams and organize tasks by status and ownership.
