Homechart (https://homechart.app) is my solution to "app fatigue": too many productivity apps (todos, calendar, recipes, shopping, budget, etc), no integrations, few self hosted, painful monetization.

Take every personal productivity app and put it into an all in one, integrated experience. Available for free (self-hosted container) or in the cloud. No ads, written in Go/Typescript.

I look at working on Homechart as slowly whittling (coding) a large piece of wood (backlog) into a finished product. Thankfully the piece of wood grows in size every month, I really enjoy the whittling aspect. The thought of selling it or bringing in corporate processes (product managers, sprints, etc) would kill my enjoyment of working on it.



Congrats on this! I've also though about this kind of app to a solution for the "app fatigue". I really like the design, simple and fast.


Neat! If you don't mind sharing, what's the stack?


API server written in Go talking to PostgreSQL with an in memory cache (Go ttlcache library is awesome) or Redis. Frontend is Mithril/Typescript, uses capacitor for the Android/iOS apps.


Docker Link is broken.
