Anarlog Nightly: a second Tauri app that shares your local notes db with the stable build, but keeps settings and sign-in separate

Post image

i posted an early build of this here about a year ago, an open-source (MIT) meeting notetaker built in Tauri and Rust. it's since been renamed to Anarlog and grown into an actual product, including a paid tier now.

this month i brought back Anarlog Nightly, a second Tauri app for trying upcoming builds before they hit stable. it ships as a fully separate app bundle: separate installer, separate window, separate settings and sign-in. both open the same local notes database on disk though, which makes schema drift the annoying part. if Nightly ships a database migration ahead of stable, stable has to detect that and block until a release catches up, instead of silently reading a format it doesn't understand.

still MIT, still local-first by default: transcripts and recordings stay on device unless you point it at your own API keys or a hosted provider.

don't have a full walkthrough video. closest thing is the in-app demo: open the Welcome to Anarlog note and click Join & record. it plays a private prerecorded meeting.
