First Impressions; anytype

Trust your notes app, it is a security first.

Out of pure love and joy I roam around the world of knowledge management apps. 2 keywords from Anytype has hooked me in;

• Freedom
• Trust

Security of your well-earned knowledge and connected notes is one of the top most priority. It is not about the amount of notes you have but more about the personalised and connected notes and knowledge you build over the period of time in any system. While so many of the great options available for your notes and knowledge management only a few have ‘security’ a top priority.

Anytype is one the top amongst the few.

Here’s a glimpse of my first impressions of Anytype:

What I liked the most:

• Your knowledge is truly yours
• Local first approach
• Very familiar block based editor
• Markdown supports
• Natively build fully functional app — Android & iOS

To be honest here, I am not a great fan of block base editor and with Anytype also the status remains the same. Personally simple markdown editor or an outliner is the best suited for my writing style.

I will be looking forward to spending a little more time with Anytype, particularly exploring the objects and relations.

It feels more familiar if you have any past experience of Notion, Coda or Craft and still it offers a little different approach.

If you are someone who enjoys block based editor, speed and concern over your notes and knowledge. Anytype offers an super simple solution to you.

You can build almost anything from daily notes-journals, take meeting notes, project and task management, wikis and knowledge management.

It has a learning curve which is shorter if you have familiar experience of Notion or any other block based editor.

Give it a try, it is open source, local first and well designed app for your note-taking needs, anytype.

Thank you for reading.

Keep reading, keep sharing.
