What is Andromeda?

Andromeda is a collection of apps that focus on minimalism, portability, and efficiency. It all started with my own desire to have a place where I could write a quick note and access it on any browser. Sure there are plenty out there, but what if I want to own my data? What if I want it to look a certain way? This was the beginning of Jotts, and shortly thereafter slew of other small apps that accent my day to day life.

Each one of these apps is written in Go, and if you're not a programmer, it simply means that these run on very little memory and CPU power. It's not another massive app that will slow down your computer. More importantly, these are web apps designed to be hosted on a server. Instead of depending on a provider, their terms of service, or another subscription, these apps just need a place to run; a computer in the cloud. Even if you're not that technical, I've designed these to be simple to setup through a hosting service called Railway. All you have to do is click a button, then enter a few details like a password. Check out the quickstart if you haven't already to give it a try.

The goal of Andromeda is to provide free, minimal, and efficient open source apps, that empower people to run their own software. If you're a developer, check out the stack for Andromeda and start building similar apps. Take control of your apps, and make them serve you; not the other way around.
