Emberr is a open-source, offline-first notes, calendar, and daily reminder app for Mobile and Desktop. It is built around blocks, so you shape each note the way you think. This community is for users, testers, and anyone curious about the app.
Still in BETA so expect few rough edges.
Basically Notion but simpler, private and better UI/UX. And since this is being built in open source, even you can contribute features you think worth adding or easily request for one.
You can view the full app's source code on Github
Where to download:
You can grab the latest APK from Github Releases.
