About

what is lokus?
lokus is a local-first markdown note-taking app for people who are tired of managing 10+ obsidian plugins just to get basic features.

what makes it different:

- database views like notion (built-in, no plugins)

- 3D/2D knowledge graphs that actually work

- AI integration (MCP server with 68+ tools)

- works with your existing obsidian vaults

- 10mb download vs 100mb (rust/tauri instead of electron)

- 100x faster search

- completely free & open source

built with: react + rust (tauri 2.0)

current state:

- v1.3.3 released

- 50k+ lines of code

- works on mac/windows/linux

- actively developed

- growing community

why support?

right now this is just me working nights/weekends. your support helps:

- keep development active

- fix bugs faster

- add features you actually want

- eventually go full-time on this

all funds go directly to:

- development time

- infrastructure costs (hosting, CI/CD, etc.)

- design/UX improvements

- documentation

100% transparent - all expenses public on open collective

this isn't a VC-backed startup trying to lock you in. just open source software funded by people who use it.

if you use lokus and want to see it grow, consider supporting 🙏
