Open MES - Open-source MES for running and improving production lines

by•
OpenMES is an open-source manufacturing execution system for small and mid-sized factories. It helps teams manage production lines, track orders, monitor shop-floor activity, and bring more visibility into daily operations without enterprise-level complexity. This first MVP is already usable, self-hostable, and built to evolve with real feedback from production teams.

Hey, I built OpenMES because most manufacturing software feels too heavy, too expensive, or too hard to adapt for smaller production teams. OpenMES is my attempt to make MES simpler and more accessible — open source, self-hostable, and usable from the first version already. This is still an MVP, built solo, and testing is ongoing, but it can already support real production line management. I’m launching it to get real feedback from people working in manufacturing, operations, and industrial software. If you run any kind of production, I’d love to hear what is missing, what matters most, and where this should go next. GitHub: https://github.com/Mes-Open/OpenMes Website: https://getopenmes.com/

OpenMES v0.11.1 is out! 

 We've been busy improving the day-to-day experience for production managers and operators. Here's what's new: 
- Production Planner Completely redesigned schedule view with a Gantt-style shift grid. Drag & drop work orders across lines and shifts. Weekly, daily, and monthly views. Real-time updates via polling so the whole team sees changes instantly. Overdue orders are visually flagged directly on the timeline. Shift-precise placement drop an order exactly where it
 belongs
- Tabbed System Settings - The settings page got a complete redesign. Instead of one long scrollable page, everything is now  organized into clean tabs: General, Production, Schedule, Security, and Data. Less scrolling, faster access.     
- Overdue Order Highlighting - Work orders past their due date now stand out with a red left border and tinted row. No more  missed deadlines hiding in plain sight.
- Sidebar Cleanup - Removed duplicate navigation entries and unused links. Cleaner sidebar, less confusion.    
- Polish Translations - Added missing translations for production tracking modes, settings descriptions, and UI labels. The Polish version keeps getting better.

 Open source, built with Laravel + Alpine.js + Tailwind CSS.
