Velo – Open-source, keyboard-first email client in Tauri and Rust
I built Velo because I wanted Superhuman's speed and keyboard workflow without the $30/month price tag or sending all my data through someone else's servers. Velo is a local-first desktop email client. Your emails live in a local SQLite database - no middleman servers, no cloud sync. It works offline and your data stays on your machine. What makes it different: - Keyboard-driven - Superhuman-style shortcuts (j/k navigate, e archive, c compose, /search). You can fly through your inbox without touching the mouse - Built with Tauri v2 + Rust backend - ~15MB binary, low memory…

Talanoa▲346Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
