Hi everyone!

It’s me again)

For those who haven’t heard of it yet - VOID is a local-first, open-source ā€œsecond brainā€ 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 ā€œshowing off.ā€ 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!

    Admitted, it was a bit reductive and mean, because I was annoyed about the long list of meaningless mumbo-jumbo in the post, without explaining what this app supposedly does / is useful for. If people have something useful to present, why not start with the useful bit of info? ā€œManaging knowledge managementā€ sounds a bit like the ā€œpresident of the tautology association presidencyā€

            You don’t see the humor in you having said, ā€œDo you want me to explain it like I’m five?ā€

            I thought it was funny. And that’s why they replied the way they did. You were also being very snarky. And who wants assistance from someone being snarky?

            This is definitely a both sides are wrong argument. /2Ā¢

                Your comment just now is entirely true, but you completely missed the point.

                The funny part is, you basically offered to talk like a child when explaining.

                    ā€œI’m sorry you weren’t able to understand itā€¦ā€, sounds snarky as hell. That’s victim blaming. The original comment they replied to was indeed a bunch of mumbo jumbo.
