Use Cases
How different teams and developers use barkcli.
Solo Developers
Manage your personal projects without SaaS subscriptions. Tasks live in your repo, version controlled with your code.
Small Teams (2-10)
Collaborate on tasks via git. No server, no admin — just push and pull.

Open Source Maintainers
Track issues, features, and roadmap in the repo itself. Contributors see tasks alongside code.
Migrating from Linear
