This is pretty awesome. Simple and focused, but extensible. No paid sync and self-hosted only. It's a web app but local-first. It's not an Electron app that takes 1GB+ RAM at all times.

This might get me away from Obsidian. And since you're not trying to create another Everything App with Electron (and a little bit of note-taking), it could be much easier to contribute to its development.

Is there the capability to auto-sync the notes to a git repo? That's a key aspect of how I use Obsidian (using the obsidian-git community plugin); the plugin makes a git commit after a specified time has elapsed since the last text change, and pushes this to the remote repo. This ensures that multiple clients will not lose data due to conflicts, unlike more naive syncing.

Definitely something worth looking into, imo. Maybe a third-party script could do this.

I was wondering the same thing and found this in the Plugs section: https://silverbullet.md/Plugs/Git
