About AppFlowy
AppFlowy is an open-source Notion alternative built in Rust and Flutter: documents, kanban boards, grids and calendars with offline-first storage. Self-host it or use AppFlowy Cloud, and keep full ownership of your workspace.
About Notion
Notion combines documents, wikis, databases and project boards into one connected workspace. Teams use it as a single source of truth for notes, specs and planning, with powerful relational databases and a huge template ecosystem. The free plan works well for personal use; team features are paid.
