With nearly 5,000 GitHub stars and a Hacker News launch that garnered 147 points, Colanode delivers the first genuinely local-first alternative to both Slack and Notion in a single self-hosted workspace — writing every operation to a client-side SQLite database before syncing to your server, so teams work at full speed offline, on planes, or through intermittent connections without ever losing a draft. The real-time chat system provides channels and direct messages with instant delivery via WebSocket, while the rich text editor offers Notion-style block-based pages for documents, wikis, meeting notes, and knowledge bases with headings, code blocks, embeds, and nested hierarchies. Customizable databases organize structured data with custom fields and three dynamic views — table for spreadsheet-style browsing, kanban for visual workflow boards, and calendar for time-based planning. Conflict-free Replicated Data Types powered by Yjs handle concurrent editing across pages and database records: multiple users modify the same document simultaneously and the system merges changes automatically without manual conflict resolution. File management supports upload, sharing, and organization within workspaces using pluggable storage backends including local filesystem, S3-compatible services, Google Cloud Storage, and Azure Blob Storage with TUS resumable uploads for large files. The server runs Fastify with Zod validation on Node.js 20+, persists to PostgreSQL with pgvector extension, uses Redis for event broadcasting, and deploys via a single Docker image.

In TeXlyre, two coauthors edit the same LaTeX or Typst file at once, and the PDF compiles inside the browser tab instead of on someone else's server. Start from a template: arXiv preprint, IEEE paper, Tufte book, Beamer deck. pdfTeX, XeTeX, and LuaTeX compile with BibTeX and Biber. Errors turn into readable cards that jump to the failing line. Live cursors show who is typing where. A shared link brings coauthors in, no accounts needed. Chat sits beside the editor, and comments can be discussed and resolved. Tracked insertions and deletions land in a review panel to accept or reject. Draw.io and TikZ editors open inside the project for shared diagrams. MathLive edits a formula under the cursor with a virtual keyboard. A bibliography panel tidies BibTeX, matches DOIs, and imports from Zotero and OpenAlex. Large files travel straight from one collaborator's browser to another. Projects export as ZIP, sync to a local folder, or back up to GitHub, GitLab, Gitea, and Codeberg. Vim, Emacs, and Helix keybindings are one setting away. The app installs as a progressive web app and works offline. Language servers like LTeX LS Plus, Harper, and Tinymist plug in through recipes beside your own signaling and TeX Live package servers.

Documents, tables, files, chat, and video meetings share one workspace in atomic.place, and AtomicServer is the part you host yourself so a team can edit together while the data stays on a machine it controls. Documents are collaborative rich text with comments, icons, and cover images, tables enforce a strict schema with keyboard navigation and copy and paste, and any table can switch to a kanban, calendar, dashboard, or timer view. Templates start an issue tracker, a CRM, a project task list, or a time tracker. Live cursors, typing indicators, and presence avatars show who is working where, group channels carry attachments, replies, and search, and an infinite canvas can be drawn on together. Every write is a signed commit, so a full history is kept. Read and write rights follow the resource hierarchy, and invite links bring people in. Websites are designed in the browser, published in one click, and rolled back to any earlier version. Custom classes and properties come from the Ontology Editor, small apps are plain JavaScript screens over the same data, and AI features work with any model through OpenRouter or a local Ollama and support MCP. Typeahead search suggests results as you type. A REST API answers in JSON-AD, Turtle, or JSON-LD for automation, and export and import commands write and read JSON-AD backups.

Seven columns, one per day, hold your whole week of tasks in Will Be Done, and rebalancing a crowded Wednesday means dragging a card to Friday. Unfinished tasks keep their day and get a quiet yellow marker instead of piling into tomorrow as red overdue badges. The Today view narrows the screen to one day, and Stash holds the few tasks you want close at hand without picking a date. Projects get kanban boards with columns you define, such as Week, Month, Ideas, and Someday, and separate spaces keep work and personal planning apart. Tasks carry descriptions and checklists, and recurring tasks repeat daily, weekly, monthly, or yearly with custom intervals and end dates. Every device holds a full local database, so planning, completing, and rescheduling happen with no network at all, and changes sync across tabs and devices once the server is reachable. Vim keys such as h, j, k, and l move through everything, and a global quick-add shortcut in the Linux, macOS, and Windows desktop apps captures a task without leaving the window you are in. Todoist and TickTick imports bring existing projects along, and a token-protected HTTP API with OpenAPI docs lets scripts, cron jobs, and bots drop tasks straight into your stash.
