NoteCove▲82I built NoteCove because I wanted notes and tasks that sync across devices without the data going to a SaaS company. The sync works through files on your own iCloud Drive, Google Drive, or Dropbox — there's no NoteCove server in the sync path. The tricky part was making this reliable. I ended up using CRDTs (specifically Yjs) for conflict resolution, which handles the case where you edit the same note on your phone offline and your laptop offline — both edits merge without losing either. It has a full task management system alongside notes: custom states, kanban boards, parent/child…

This is an experimental extension for CRDTs, pg_crdt: GitHub repo[0]. It supports Yjs/Yrs and Automerge. The linked blog post [1] describes how we're thinking about this extension in a Supabase context. I want to emphasise this part: "pg_crdt has not been released onto the Supabase platform (and it may never be). We’re considering many options for offline-sync/support and, while CRDTs will undoubtedly factor in, we’re not sure if this is the right approach."

Hi HN! Matrix-CRDT connects the worlds of Yjs [1] (a proven, high performance CRDT) with that of Matrix.org [2]. It started as an experiment, asking myself; can we store "state updates of a datastore" in Matrix instead of chat messages? Now, I'm convinced it's actually a really powerful combination to develop real-time, collaborative software. I'm using it for a new project and so far didn't have to write a backend yet. Matrix takes care of a lot of stuff: Authentication, E2EE, federation, hosting, etc. - so I can focus on the client. I love the ideas of Local First [3] software. Personally,…

Hi HN, Like many of you here, this is not my first time applying to YC. Each time, my co-founder and I would copy the YC application to google docs to collaborate on it, then we copy it back to submit. This got us thinking - why can't we just collaborate on the YC application in the YC application? At one point I went down the CRDT rabbit hole and realized collaborative forms would be a great use of CRDTs, so I decided to build this out to an MVP. If you're curious about CRDTs (Conflict-Free Replicated Data Types) and how they differ from OT (Operational transformation, which is what powers…

Hey HN, I want to share with you something I and my four colleagues have been working on for the last several years. It’s a whiteboarding and notes tool called Muse[1]. We just released a 2.0 version which includes local-first sync. A little backstory: I’m one of the authors of the 2019 essay Local-first software[2]. (Past HN discussions[3][4].) The thesis is to reclaim some of the ownership over our data that we’ve lost in the transition from filesystems to cloud/SaaS. So I’m excited to bring CRDT technology “out of the lab” and into a commercial product as a chance to prove the value…

Thank you for your comments, just some context: - The app is available for iOS, Android, Windows, Mac, Apple Vision Pro, and the Web. - The Web version is implemented as a Progressive Web Application that is very responsive, local first, offline first, can be installed, and is entirely free to use. - Native (hybrid) versions do not require subscription fees and have small one-time payment. - You can store your notes in Git using any Git provider such as GitHub, GitLab, or Bitbucket. However, it has the best built-in integration with GitHub. Self-hosted scenarios like Gitea are also…

Hi HN, I built Note API Connector, a tool that lets you import and sync data from any API into Notion with just a few clicks. It's useful for building live dashboards, tracking metrics, syncing CRM data, and managing structured content inside Notion. It’s the result of several months of building, testing, and writing tutorials to make it beginner-friendly. I’d love your feedback, especially on what features or improvements you'd like to see next.

Hi! I’m one of the founders of s2.dev, and recently have been hacking on opbox, which is an open-source daemon that turns directories of text files (code, markdown, etc) into collaborative, multi-player workspaces. This started as a bit of an intellectual curiosity, to see if it was possible to do real-time sync at the filesystem level (i.e., in an editor-agnostic way). The idea is pretty simple: - Opbox workspaces are roughly analogous to git repositories (and can be used alongside existing git repos, to share live changes between commits) - When the opbox daemon is running in a workspace…
