There is also AirTable, which is like a combination of Trello and Excel. I
haven't used it, but the friends I know who have really like it.

When I sold ads for various periodicals back when, we used paper-based
insertion orders to make sure that ads ran when they were supposed to and
according to spec.
Today I handle several clients and might have half a dozen assignments at
any one time.
I'd like to open a web page and see my assignments in a color-coded manner,
much like a grid composed of Post-It notes.
I'd also like the solution to be open source (or even an Excel template).
Suggestions?
