I chose the name VOID because it’s short, memorable, and also works as an acronym — Versatile Open-source Infrastructure for Documentation. Beyond that, I like the idea of a “void” as an empty space you can fill with your own structure, knowledge, and workflow — kind of like a blank canvas. Also I took a bit of inspiration in lovecraft’s books

Hello everyone, it’s me again)

Thank you to everyone who follows VOID and supports the project. I want to share some important news: VOID needs your help, and that’s why we’ve launched a survey to better understand which features and approaches you really need.

For those hearing about it for the first time: VOID is an open-source second-brain app. In short, it’s an “extension” for your brain - a place to store ideas, notes, research, tasks, and projects. VOID combines the flexibility of Obsidian with the databases of Notion, but it is being built as a fully local, fast, and extensible solution.

The survey will help us understand which tools you currently use and why you like them, what frustrates you most about them, which features like sync, plugins, collaboration, or global Vim navigation would actually be useful, and what you’ve always felt was missing in other apps.

The form is anonymous and takes only a few minutes: https://tally.so/r/3qyW9g

Your answers will help us shape VOID so it becomes as convenient and powerful as possible for you. This is a project for the community, built by a small community - and it’s you who decide what it will become.

Thank you for your support and your help! GitHub: https://github.com/WTWB-none/void

When you asked me about this crate, I just wrote how it’s used not checking the code itself, my bad

Thanks, checked parts where I use it, found a few serious bugs in code. I’ll remove rust-fetch and use pure reqwest library. Thanks again, you helped a lot)

Could you message me in matrix or telegram? I always trying to improve my skills, your feedback could help me a lot.

I just googled smth like fetch in rust and it was one of the first link. What’s wrong with it, still make its job done.

I used rust fetch to fetch css for themes and manifests from GitHub repository with themes (and plugins soon as I rewrite current solution based on git2 dependency) that you import. Probably there was a better solution, but rust fetch finds me first)

I’m pretty confident in my Rust and Vue skills, so not using chatGPT(or any other AI tool) in my work). I wrote all of the VOID by my hands. Why Peter Thiel though?

[–] Transhumanist@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 month ago

Yep, after successfull beta

[–] Transhumanist@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Replied to a wrong comment( But yes, VOID written in rust + vue(tauri) :)

[–] Transhumanist@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Thanks) I’m here not to argue with anyone, but just to share my work. Still readme could be confusing for someone, I’ll rework it soon.

Thanks, it means a lot to me)

 

Hi everyone!

It’s me again)

For those who haven’t heard of it yet - VOID is a local-first, open-source “second brain” app. Think of it as combining the flexibility of Obsidian with the structured organization of Notion.

As the title says - VOID just reached 100 stars on GitHub!

Huge thanks for all your support - it truly motivates me to work even harder and bring the project to release as soon as possible.

But this post isn’t only about “showing off.” Over the past week I’ve mainly been polishing the editor’s behavior, and now I’m finally happy with it. I think it’s time to share the roadmap for the next year(I think?):

  • Note linking, global indexing of todos and tags, and embedded content (videos, images, audio, etc.)

  • Migration from Excalidraw canvas to a custom JSON Canvas implementation

  • Databases (similar to Notion)

  • Sync server improvements and a self-hosted Docker container

  • Plugin API (Lua for the backend and any frontend framework you can imagine)

  • Full redesign of the entire app (yes, we finally have a designer!)

  • And of course… optimization, optimization, optimization

We also now have a Lemmy community where I’ll post small devlogs, thoughts, and some behind-the-scenes updates about VOID. If you’re interested in the project, feel free to join there — or hop into our GitHub Discussions.

And one more thing - the first beta is coming very soon!
Stay tuned!

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.
