Totem
A collaborative workspace app combining tasks, notes, and docs, built in Rust and available across desktop, web, and mobile (iOS first), with seamless real-time CRDT syncing and offline merge. It takes a local-first, ops-log approach for responsiveness and a ~100MB memory footprint, and is built on Markdown and SQLite as core formats so data stays portable and isn't locked into a proprietary platform. Currently seeking beta users and design partners ahead of launch.
What it addresses
There's a lack of true realtime (CRDT) synced notes that aren't built on heavy platforms taking 1GB+ RAM; existing tools also lock data into proprietary formats rather than portable formats like Markdown and SQLite.
