Full-featured text editor, collaboration

[mmospanenko]

This project is great as a database, but with small additional functionality it will change the world! All what needed - just add content to records. Just imagine if connect database with something like Outline - it will kill Notion!

Project management, knowledge base, team collaboration, reporting and analytics - there are no any limits, build what you need.

Describe the solution you'd like

• ability to add content (outliner), inline editing, blocks, integrations (embeds)
• comments/collaboration features
• reporting (charts, dashboards)

Describe alternatives you've considered
Notion, but SaaS.

Additional context
It will kill Jira, Notion, Airtable and many others PM tools.

Please note, that creating a suitable block editor is a non-trivial task, as AppFlowy, Anytype, AFFiNE, hash.ai, Logseq and Outline show.

I agree that there is a predominant need to have a replacement for Notion in FLOSS-land.

Also see this discussion over at Outline:

• Add Notion-like inline databases outline/outline#6507

Yeah, a rich text editor is not a "small" feature 😂

But AFFiNE's editor is actually very nice and also separately open source:

• BlockSuite | Content Editing Tech Stack

They all are cool products, I use all of them in my workflow, but they don't have the most important - relational databases that Teable (or Nocodb, Baserow, Pocketbase - Teable seems most correctly designed) has.

So Teable (as a base) combining with Outline looks very promising as a complete solution.

But, anyway, just add simple comments and very primitive body content (text + image) as a MVP, it will also cover a lot of use cases :)
