What is the state of the art for building privacy conscious backends for applications like this? I really haven't seen a great platform that provides well documented and reasonably designed general purpose APIs for handling both encryption, sync, versioning, and conflict resolution.

Based on IPFS so seems like your entire privacy rests in crypto
Bitwarden: https://github.com/bitwarden/server/blob/master/README.md https://github.com/bitwarden/server/blob/master/README.md
App works well but it doesn't seem like there is interest in making this general purpose, maybe because of the software stack choice?

Standard notes clobbers data if two devices make offline edits :(

- philips 8y agoDo you know where the code and design docs are for the backends? The wiki has so many out of date pointers.
- jpeeler 8y agoThere are several alternate implementations for the bitwarden server. Unless my plans change, eventually I plan on deploying this one: https://github.com/dani-garcia/bitwarden_rs https://github.com/dani-garcia/bitwarden_rs
