The GitKraken Pro Suite of developer tools empower millions of engineers worldwide to release software faster with fewer errors. Three legendary tools - Git GUI, Boards, and Timelines - make developers and teams more efficient at communicating, better at collaborating, and more productive overall.
The GitKraken Git GUI is a cross-platform client for Windows, Mac, and Linux, simplifying complicated Git commands into drag-and-drop actions. Integrations are available with top Git hosting service providers and issue trackers such as GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, Azure DevOps, Jira Cloud/Server, GitKraken Boards, and Trello (Self-Hosted and Stand-Alone license options available).
GitKraken Boards offers an easy way for developers to track individual and team tasks. GitKraken Boards sync in real-time with GitHub Issues and GitHub Milestones; use GitHub Actions or built-in column automation to eliminate repetitive processes.
GitKraken Timelines helps you stay organized by visualizing upcoming project milestones and deadlines in a linear timeline. The auto-shift feature makes it easy to update deadlines as projects evolve, automatically adjusting future dates. Create timelines for each project and then view them overlayed on top of each other.
