Twidge

A productivity app which is an extension to your mind

Twidge is a cross platform productivity app, powered by rust, tauri, prisma-client-rust

Twidge works entirely offline, the various features provided by twidge are listed below

Motivation

Due to my ever-increasing school work, I seldom had time to code. One day, I tried to see why I was getting so little time, and that is when I realized that a lot of my time was spent deciding what I should do next. The answer was obvious I needed a calendar app, I tried almost all of the calendar apps and realized that I was spending more than 30 minutes filling in my calendar, it was also clear that I needed something more than a calendar, something wherein I can throw all the links when I browse the web so that I can look at them later on, therefore twidge was born.

Features

Completed:

Configuration - The structure for the source code of Twidge, built entirely on react, tauri and rust. The structure was inspired by spacedrive

In progress:

Spaces - Spaces help you divide tasks based on a specific tag (say work, personal, junk etc)
Infinite Scroll View: Twidge aims to offer an infinite scroll view where you can write everything down
Todo List: Map all your tasks in a single list, these tasks can be linked with calendars and embeds.
Calendar: You can map tasks to calendars so that you know what tasks have to be completed when.
Embeds: Embed Youtube vides, Google searches, Twitter posts, etc. So that you never loose that resource which you found 2 months earlier.
Global Keymaps: Ctrl+Shift+K and you have your powerful menu ⚡, create tasks, embeds, calendar events etc.
Notification Handler - So that you are reminded 5-15 minutes before a new task starts.

Post MVP:

Mobile app (IOS/Android)
Sync between devices.
Save all the tasks on the cloud
Collaboration of tasks between different people

Architecture

We follow an architecture similar to that of spacedrive.

Prisma, Rust, rspc, React, Typescript, Tauri, Stitches and Radix
Tauri uses OS webviews, this helps remove the overhead of V8 (like in electron), and brings cpu and ram-usage to a minimum.
We can use prisma on the front-end thanks to brendan who is the creator of prisma-client-rust
