Any recommendations for a self hosted checklist (alien.top)

Hi everyone.

I work in IT, and we have a daily checklist that some of the staff run through, covering various checks on various systems - some as simple as moving files, others like starting a routine job, etc.

​

We currently run through this on paper, ticking off the entry once we've actioned it. I was wondering if anyone knew of a simple alternative we could host? We don't need a full fledged program, that has to do lists, and collaboration, etc, just something simple that we can create a checklist of tasks, that resets daily which the IT staff can open up and check off (so that everyone else can see also).

​

I understand this may be very specific, but thought best to ask the land of self hosted anyway.

Thanks

I think some of the kanban style tools out there allow for daily tasks, like asana or trello, wekan. Not sure if those ones specifically do, but it's a starting point.

We use https://budibase.com/ and created a simple app that just stashes the "checklist" in the db, then you can create a reports page to look up who did what.

Of course we use buddibase for other things as well in IT for simple forms etc so it worked for us. Look at your apps you currently use and what you have in place and don't reinvent the wheel. If you have SharePoint you can just create a new list, if you have one/google, drives, you can just share a spread sheet. Use teams? Do a teams channel.

A lot of this depends on the reporting requirements.

Why not put the effort it takes to setup this list thingy in automating these tasks? You might look at something like Rundeck.
