We're super excited to introduce AFFiNE to this brilliant community!
AFFiNE is an open-source, all-in-one workspace and an operating system for all the building blocks that assemble your knowledge base and much more -- wiki, knowledge management, presentation and digital assets. It's a better alternative to Notion and Miro.
To Shape, not to adapt. Tools can impact your lifestyle. AFFiNE is built for individuals & teams who care about their data, who refuse vendor lock-in, and who want to have control over their essential tools.
✨ Some highlights of our technology advancements and features include:
✅ A true canvas for blocks in any form. Docs and whiteboard are now fully merged.
Many editor apps claim to be a canvas for productivity, but AFFiNE is one of the very few which allows you to put any building block on an edgeless canvas -- rich text, sticky notes, any embedded web pages, multi-view databases, linked pages, shapes and even slides. We have it all.
✅ Magic multimodal AI partner ready to kick in any work
Write up professional work report? Turn an outline into expressive and presentable slides? Summary an article into a well-structured mindmap? Sorting your job plan and backlog for tasks? Or....draw and code prototype apps and web pages directly all with one prompt? With you, AFFiNE AI pushes your creativity to the edge of your imagination.
✅ Local-first & Real-time collaborative
We love the idea of local-first that you always own your data on your disk, in spite of the cloud. Furthermore, AFFiNE supports real-time sync and collaborations on web and cross-platform clients.
✅ Open-Source & Shape your own AFFiNE
AFFiNE, along with our cloud services and all our infrastructure, is 100% open source. You have the freedom to manage, self-host, or even shape your own version of AFFiNE. With our upcoming plugin community and third-party blocks, we're building a platform that adapts to your unique needs. Imagine a workspace as customizable as your own digital lifestyle, where each tool and feature is specifically tailored to fit your unique workflow. You and your knowledge are unique, and your tools should be too.
“We shape our tools and thereafter our tools shape us”. A lot of pioneers have inspired us along the way, e.g.:
- Quip & Notion with their great concept of “everything is a block”
- Trello with their Kanban
- Airtable & Miro with their no-code programable datasheets
- Miro & Whimiscal with their edgeless visual whiteboard
- Remnote & Capacities with their object-based tag system
There is a large overlap of their atomic “building blocks” between these apps. They are not open source, nor do they have a plugin system like Vscode for contributors to customize. We want to have something that contains all the features we love and also goes one step even further.
Thanks for checking us out, we appreciate your interest and sincerely hope that AFFiNE resonates with you! 🎵 Checking https://affine.pro/ for more details ☀️!
