Overview

What is Zen?

Zen is an open-source productivity application that uniquely combines the Eisenhower matrix, Pomodoro, and key principles of Getting Things Done (GTD) to enhance developers' routines. Its goal: help you stay « in the zone ».

The dashboard (Zenboard) integrates the matrix, Pomodoro timer, time tracking, and automatic standup into a single tab. The workflow is intentionally simple: plan what matters, focus on one thing, log completed work, then share progress. Yesterday's tracked work becomes today's standup, ready to paste into Slack, Jira, or a build journal.

Zen is not a team Kanban nor a blank wiki: it is a single-player focus tool designed for engineers who deliver at their own pace. Hosted and maintained by DINAO, it runs in a dedicated container on our French infrastructure.

FAQ

You might be wondering…

Is Zen a team Kanban?

No. Zen is a single-player focus tool for engineers who deliver at their own pace — it is neither a team Kanban nor a blank wiki, but a daily workflow to plan, focus, and log.

Is my work data private?

Yes. Your tasks, Pomodoro sessions, and logs remain on your instance hosted in France by DINAO. No data is shared with third parties.

Can I generate my standup automatically?

Yes. Yesterday's tracked work becomes today's standup: you copy it as-is into Slack, Jira, or your build journal.

Do I need technical skills?

No for usage: the interface is ready to use. DINAO handles installation, updates, and security.

Can I export my data?

Yes. Your data remains exportable at any time — no proprietary lock-in — and you can change tiers whenever you wish.
