Dobase – Your workspace, your server

Open-source app that replaces your scattered SaaS tools with a single self-hosted workspace. Mail, boards, docs, chat, and more — all under your control.

Install only what you need. Each tool can be shared with different collaborators, or kept private.

IMAP/SMTP email client with rich text compose, contacts, and threaded conversations.

Kanban boards with drag-and-drop columns, cards, comments, and attachments.

Rich text documents you can share and edit together with your team.

Real-time messaging with typing indicators, threaded replies, and file sharing.

Task lists with due dates, assignments, comments, and file attachments.

File storage with folders, previews, and sharing via public links.

CalDAV-compatible calendar with recurring events and standalone local mode.

Video conferencing powered by LiveKit, without leaving your workspace.

Hit Cmd+K to instantly jump to any tool, page, or action without touching the mouse.

Navigate, compose, and act from the keyboard. Every tool ships with a full shortcut set and a ? help overlay.

Activity dots appear on tools with new content since your last visit. Pushed live over ActionCable — no polling.

TOTP-based 2FA compatible with any authenticator app. Enable per-account for an extra layer of security.

Invite people as owners or collaborators per tool. Permissions are explicit and instance-based, never global.

Responsive layout that works on any screen size. Add to your home screen as a PWA for native-app feel.

Dobase runs on your server. No analytics, no tracking, no third-party data sharing. One Rails app, one SQLite database, one Docker container. That is the entire stack.

Install with ONCE for the easiest setup — backups, updates, and SSL handled automatically. Or deploy with Kamal for zero-downtime deploys with LiveKit video. Works on any VPS, cloud server, or Raspberry Pi.
