any-sync + note taking app = Anytype
any-sync + * = Anyverse (because star, get it? 🤓🤓🤓)
The Any Association is free to take the name anytime without permission or credit.
Anyverse is my temporary solution for extending the any-sync frontend while waiting for official plugin support.
It contains the following apps:
| Status | Name | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| 🚧 | RSS aggregator | - |
| 🚧 | Flash card | spaced repetition like anki |
| ❌ | Finance manager | - |
| ❌ | Time tracker | - |
| ❌ | Calendar | calendar with sync and notifications |
| ❌ | Anyfana | data visualization like Grafana |
| ❌ | Any exporter | exporter for prometheus |
| ❌ | Anydraw | excalidraw in Anytype |
| ❌ | Anyicon | icon set manager |
| ❌ | Watchdog | Environment monitoring (volatile gas, Temperature, Humidity, Dust, Brightness, etc.) |
| ❌ | Vital | Body monitoring (temperature, heart rate, Oxygen level, hormone, etc.) |
Anyverse is a self-hostable web app built with Tanstack start. Docker image will be provided soon.
tl;dr: no time
As I've said in the previous section, Anyverse is a temporary solution for my own problem. I don't have the mental bandwidth for the overhead of creating, maintaining, and distributing cross-platform apps for Linux, MacOS, Windows, Android, and iOS only for it to be obsolete in a year or two when Anytype gets plugin support. I have the privilege of having decent internet connection anywhere in my country so creating Anyverse in the form of a self-hostable web app made the most sense for me. I did explore different options like tauri, electron, react native, Avalonia, .NET MAUI, Dioxus, Flutter, Capacitor, etc. but each of them had their own downfalls that made the app inconsistent or difficult to develop.
