Most people would be better of with Obsidian, Bear, Notion or even Apple Notes.
The idea is that you can choose between cloud or self-host (and "eject" at any time to switch between the two if you ever change your mind). We hope that might be a good balance between some companies or individuals wanting to self-host but still making it accessible when you don't know how any of that works, which indeed can get complicated fast.
would you implement database function like in Notion?
Is it a full feature todo app or just noting down tasks?
would be a killer app if it has 3 Yes
2. Yes. We have a bunch of default views like table, kanban, photo gallery, and calendar. You can also create your own views with a JS plugin, like this silly example of spinning globe view: https://x.com/wcools/status/1898828593255346287
3. Our aim is a full feature todo app. But we won't have every feature on day 1.
Love your site. Looks great. Lots of visual appeal. Not the same cookies cutter Tailwind theme that seems to be present everywhere.
And the best part: this is MIT licensed. If it's actually difficult to set up, build a nice web UI that makes it easy and you've got a product.
* Postgres for permanent storage
* an OIDC identity provider so you don't have to make your own password system
* Redis for caching
* S3-compatible object storage (so you don't have to reinvent file uploads)
* The app itself
What would you rather them do? Waste time reinventing the wheel for no reason? If you have the IDP and object storage setup already figured out you can get away with just the app, postgres, and redis.
A similar project we collaborate on has Helm charts as an option. “Are you mad? You run an online archive with how many pods, come again?” You may say.
“When said archive can handle a continent’s load and scale almost indefinitely, you engineer things differently”, I’ll answer.
Also, nobody will probably make this comment, if the said application was built by a private company and was not open source.
