"It should support data access for all time." - This is key for me after I had to convert my notes more than once between formats after the original app(s) went into extinction (beloved Circus Ponies Notebook).
That's why I'm designing any new apps around a file format that can be accessed even without the app.
I have a "local-first" Kanban/Trello-style app, "Boards" (http://kitestack.com/boards/ http://kitestack.com/boards/), that uses zipped HTML files (to support rich text with images). No collaboration and cross-device support just yet, but it works without a network and saves everything locally.
- threatripper 7y agoBoards seems to be Mac only. "A new Mac app to boost your productivity in school, at work, and for personal projects.", "For macOS 10.14 Mojave and later"
- ricg 7y agoYes, currently Mac-only, no cross-device support yet, but an iOS app is in planning.
- jonpurdy 7y agoI just tried Boards out. It's really nice and exactly what I wish Trello could be for a single user. Will follow the progress on this for sure.
- ricg 7y agoThanks for your feedback! I don't have a newsletter signup just yet, but if you'd like to hear about new versions, send me a quick email through the app (Help → Contact Support) and I'll add you to the list.
