💎 [Rust] Appflowy — Your Fantastic Task List, JIRA, Calendar, Word And AI Safely In One
You need to write down notes, mark stuff in calendar, manage projects like in JIRA, use AI, and do all of this safely? Check out Appflowy. It’s open source, written in Rust, works locally, in cloud, supports end-to-end encryption, and is easy to use and relaxing!
This article is part of the open source series. A non-sponsored initiative to promote interesting open source projects.
Today, I wanted to test one of the open source project’s I’ve mentioned in the first edition of 25 awesome open source end user apps summary.
My car is not supported by OpenPilot, and it would need some investment to test it. I’d have to buy a suitable car and also OpenPilot hardware. I’d love to do it some day, so you can always donate for that cause.
But before we’ll be there, I can’t test Home Assistant now that reached the second place, because well… I have a home, but I don’t have any automation as for now. So it needs to wait a while. But the project is quite exciting.
The third place is occupied by RustDesk. I’ve tried to test it today, but I have some security concerns. So that test needs to wait until things will be settled.
So we’re moving to the fourth place that belongs to AppFlowy. I’ve installed it without a problem, except the setup file is not signed. But the antivirus tests went well, and the executable is clear.
Appflowy is described as a free, open source, cross-platform, offline mode, and cloud secure workspace for your wikis and projects that’s also AI-powered but keeps you in control of your data. What’s important it’s written in Rust.
This is how the app looks like after I’ve started it. It didn’t create a start menu shortcut, so I had to go to program files to run it:
