Notion-like FOSS app

@girish said in Notion-like FOSS app:
https://github.com/outline/outline looks great but from the issue tracker it seems that author will not merge features like LDAP as they don't make sense for his SaaS.
Although on their pricing page they do advertise SSO as an Enterprise option

Would you consider CodiMD covers the main usage and needs that you get from Notion perhaps?

And for an AirTable alternative I'm a big fan of what Directus makes easier:

https://cloudron.io/store/io.hackmd.cloudronapp.htmlNo. It's not even remotely comparable.
-
@jdaviescoates Fair enough. I'm with you on keeping data on a platform you control though.
Outline looks cool, so
that LDAP pull request gets merged.Certainly interested in what else comes from this thread.

Since I can't resist a FOSS Alternative search, this looks interesting if you're into AirTable:
LeanTime looks similar at first glance: https://leantime.io
More info in the Docs: https://docs.leantime.io
Not tried it and I've no idea on your usage and needs so just adding for the record really.
Personally I like Directus for being both standardised, openness and portable data.
If I were in the market for AirTable it would be difficult to choose it against Odoo but then if you want coddles you'd need an enterprise subscription for Odoo Studio: https://www.odoo.com/page/studio

A couple more that look worth watching at least:

Baserow : This under development project seems to be in the "alternative to airtable" category : https://baserow.io/ https://gitlab.com/bramw/baserow
Notion :
I have a friend that moved his entire wordpress.org blog (15 years of posts) to guess what ?
notion !He's definitely part of the no-code approach and bootstrap lots of different journalist/media projects with no-code approaches.
I wish I could convince him to use something else and instead have an entire cloudron powering his infrastructure, but without a serious FOSS alternative to notion I won't get him on our boat

@yusf I think GitHub Sponsoring is making better inroads for that. Be good if GitLab followed that too.

https://twitter.com/AnytypeLabsYeah @seeker mentioned Anytype.io higher up the thread, looks like it'sthe closest thing to an open source Notion.
Fill in this form to help them prioritise (and likely get you up the wait list too):

Yeah, although nothing stopping anyone setting up OpenCollective and Liberapay accounts and adding the info to their README in GitLab
Both are open source too. Open Collective isn't really designed/ ready to self-host yet but you can support those efforts here https://opencollective.com/community and upvote here:

It's nothing like Notion imho, but does indeed look pretty nice!

I attended an intro webinar thing about anytype.io the other day.
It's pretty cool, but they have no plans for a web app.
It's all based on IPFS
-
@jdaviescoates Interesting. What's the front-end stack like?
-
@yusf as in what is it coded in? I'm not sure actually. If they covered that it was during the part I missed!
-
@jdaviescoates If they have no plans for a web app I really wonder what stack they're using and possible subsequent lockins.
But regardless I'm also interested in what they did have to say about their project.
-
@jdaviescoates Thanks! I am curious how did you find out about the information session?
