A way for Archiving Projekts

Problem Statement

At the moment there is no way to properly archive the projects in Kaneo. I would like to have a non-destructive way of closing a project. there is a way to export the project but the method used leaves out a lot of data (like the history of a task, the files attached etc.)

Proposed Solution

Well, what I need is a file that I can put somewhere on my backup system, that is at best human readable (I think a JSON would be human readable for this) and/or easy to reconstruct. It would also be nice if the Users were not only referenced by their ID but also by name in this file/s.

Alternative Solutions

Alternatively, a Kaneo internal Archiv Folder or something would also be ok. Saving the Docker image and current content as backup to reconstruct would also be a path to do this.

Relevant Context

you guys are most certainly deeper into this stuff than I am, so if you know something better - I am not merryed to my ideas ^^

Does this feature align with Kaneo's focus on simplicity?

Yes because there is a way of exporting allready and using Git as a crutch is not a simple solution.
