Focalboard Now Easily Deployable on Debian 12 with Secure, Scalable Setup

Focalboard, the open-source task management platform, can now be set up on Debian 12 with a secure, scalable, and performant setup. This involves deploying an instance on Shape.Host, configuring Nginx with SSL termination, and following a series of steps to ensure a smooth installation.

To begin, users should create a server instance on Shape.Host and connect to it. Focalboard can be hosted behind Nginx with SSL termination, making it suitable for both enterprise and small team environments. The process involves installing dependencies, configuring PostgreSQL, downloading and extracting Focalboard, configuring it, creating a systemd service, and setting up an Nginx reverse proxy.

Focalboard offers a range of features including kanban boards, task lists, calendars, and database-style views. It serves as a self-hosted alternative to popular task management tools like Trello, Asana, and Notion. With Focalboard, users maintain full control over their data and infrastructure.

For a secure setup, it's recommended to secure Focalboard with SSL using Let's Encrypt. Deploying apps on Shape.Host Cloud VPS ensures scalability and performance. The Nginx configuration for a reverse proxy includes setting up a server block listening on port 443 with SSL certificates, proxying requests to the Focalboard backend, and handling HTTP to HTTPS redirection.

Focalboard, being open-source and free to use, is collaboration-ready for freelancers, small teams, or enterprises. Running it on Debian 12 provides a stable, secure, and long-term supported base for production. With Shape.Host and Nginx, users can set up Focalboard with ease, ensuring a secure and performant task management solution.
