VOID — my FOSS second-brain app (europe.pub)

Developer @Transhumanist@lemmy.ml

Hey folks! I’m completely new to Lemmy and still figuring out how everything works around here... But I’d love to share a project I’ve been building.

It's called VOID (Versatile Open-source Infrastructure for Developers) - an open-source, local-first second-brain (note taking app but more powerful) application that combines the flexibility of Obsidian with the powerful organization of Notion.

Unlike many other tools, VOID is not just another note-taking app. It’s built with the idea of being a true second brain that you fully control. No vendor lock-in, no hidden cloud, no feature walls. Everything is open-source, customizable, and designed to adapt to your workflow instead of forcing you into someone else’s.

I'm currently building it with Rust, Tauri v2 and Vue.js. For certain plugins and configs, it also supports SurrealDB as a database.

check it out on my GitHub

Best of luck with the project. How is this different from projects like logseq?

This looks very cool!

It looks like a wysiwyg markdown editor. What's special about it?

The application was conceived as a hybrid of Notion and Obsidian.

[–] ilinamorato@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago

I haven't looked at it yet, but the big benefit besides being markdown is cross-note linking (like with a wiki). That's why I use Obsidian (and why I used to use Notion), I assume that's what this has going for it.

I did the something similar but it's a hybrid of Google keep and obsidian that it is mainly for mobile devices but I got appimages and a deb package available, it's called Print(Notes), it's purpose is quick notes app that supports markdown.

For my second brain I use a bunch of sticky notes on my monitors, but I'll sure give this a try.

I’ve started removing as many applications as possible that are hosted on GitHub, but if you ever move elsewhere I’ll check it out because it sounds good.

There is another newer open source project called void that's a cursor clone but with open source models (voideditor.com)
