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!
Basically, it’s just powerful app that is used to manage user knowledge management system/notes
Still doesn’t make sense, nor does it sound useful.
How dare someone have the audacity to create a program that isn’t useful for YOU, the person around whom the entire universe rotates!
Seriously, though, the creator is volunteering their time and energy to create something for the greater good, even if you can’t figure it out. If you can’t invest the minimal effort to not shit on it, invest the even smaller amount to fuck off.
Managing and organizing notes doesn’t sound useful?
doesn’t have the same ring to it as
The first one sounds like it’s a meta-management engine with a very abstract purpose that is not explained in OP. The second - your wording - sounds like a simple Notes app, and I mean “simple” in a good way. The OP doesn’t manage to communicate such a simple message.
It may not have the same ring to it but if you think about it for more than two seconds you may realize that it has the same meaning :-)
Ah so we’re just shitting on OP for being a non-native English speaker doing their best. Carry on.
Notion, Obsidian and Evernote are also second brain apps. None of the major ones are open source though, which is what makes this project cool. It’s fine if that’s not useful for you, but the way you’re replying is kind of reductive, and honestly a bit mean.
There’s also logseq, which I would pit into this category, and is open source

Oo, thanks for the tip!!
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? “Managing knowledge management” sounds a bit like the “president of the tautology association presidency”
I’m sorry you weren’t able to understand it, do you need an explain like I’m five?
No, an explanation like you were five wouldn’t improve upon OP.
You’re really a chummy type, aren’t ya?
You don’t see the humor in you having said, “Do you want me to explain it like I’m five?”
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. /2¢
ELI5 is a pretty established thing that’s self-evident.
You’re much kinder than I. I think the term “self-centered arsehole” applies here.

Don’t take it to heart. I’ve literally been spit on for passing out food to the homeless. Misery loves company and some people are so miserable that they form a multinational corporation.
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.
