Hey selfhosters 👋
0.7 is out. Biggest release so far.
Quick context if you missed the previous posts: Ideon is a self-hosted visual workspace for developers. Infinite canvas, everything about a project in one place: notes, Git repos, tasks, files, links, kanbans.
The problem was never too many tools. It was that none of them talk to each other.
What's new:
- Obsidian import: drop a vault into a project, notes become blocks on the canvas
- Vercel integration: deploy and check deployment status without leaving the canvas
- Excalidraw block: killed the old Sketch block, Excalidraw is just better
- Folder block: group and collapse blocks, helps a lot on bigger projects
- Drag and drop import: files, folders, text, Excalidraw sketches, drop anything on the canvas and Ideon picks the right block type
- Vim mode for Note and Snippet blocks, opt-in from Account settings
- Audio and video playback in File blocks
300+ stars now, more than I expected when I first posted here. Every issue, every comment pushed this forward, thank you.
Anyway. Worth a try if you haven't yet :)
Nice! The folders make a great addition!
Can I suggest one block? I would like a simple „title“ block. Just one line of text, like the Core block but smaller.
Is there a reason for excalidraw vs drawio? I currently use drawio, as I found it more capable than excalidraw.
thanks, if it helps, you can double click on the lines connecting blocks then you can enter sum text to append a tag on connections :
for Excalidraw, there's no specific reason, i just use excalidraw everyday lol so I choosed it, but I can look for a drawio integration ;)
