GoingsOn

A desktop productivity app – tasks, email, calendar, contacts, and project management in one place. Built with Tauri 2, Rust, and vanilla JS.

Local-first. Your data lives in a SQLite database on your own machine. No telemetry, no analytics, no remote logging. Cloud sync is optional and end-to-end encrypted.

Your data

• Export – JSON (full), CSV (tasks), ICS (calendar events).
• Backup and restore – full snapshots restorable into a fresh install.
• Storage – SQLite on disk; you can copy or back up the file directly.
• Updates – checked on launch; install is user-initiated, never forced.

Prerequisites

• Rust (stable toolchain, 2024 edition)
• Tauri 2 CLI (cargo install tauri-cli --version '^2')
• Linux only: system dependencies for WebKitGTK

  # Debian/Ubuntu
  sudo apt install libwebkit2gtk-4.1-dev build-essential curl wget file \
      libxdo-dev libssl-dev libayatana-appindicator3-dev librsvg2-dev
  
  # Arch
  sudo pacman -S webkit2gtk-4.1 base-devel curl wget file openssl \
      appmenu-gtk-module libappindicator-gtk3 librsvg2-dev
  

• macOS / Windows: no extra system dependencies beyond Rust and the Tauri CLI.

Build and Run

# Development (hot-reload frontend, debug backend)
cargo tauri dev

# Production build (macOS DMG, Windows installer, Linux AppImage)
cargo tauri build

# Run all workspace tests
cargo test --workspace

Workspace Architecture

The project is a Cargo workspace with three library crates and one application crate:

Dependency flow: core is leaf -> db-sqlite and plugin-runtime depend on core -> src-tauri depends on all three plus synckit-client.

Features

• Tasks – urgency scoring, recurrence, snooze, subtasks, day planning (time blocking), weekly review
• Email – IMAP/SMTP and Fastmail JMAP, OAuth (Google, Microsoft, Fastmail), threaded display, compose/reply
• Calendar – events with recurrence, project/contact linking, timeline view
• Contacts – multi-field (emails, phones, social handles), tags, search
• Projects – per-project dashboards (tasks + events + emails), milestones
• Search – FTS5 full-text search across all entity types
• Cloud sync – SyncKit integration with E2E encryption
• Plugins – Rhai scripting for CSV/data import
• Themes – built-in light and dark themes with system auto-detection (see src-tauri/frontend/themes/helix/)
• Keyboard shortcuts – vim-style navigation throughout
• Platforms – macOS (primary), Windows, Linux; iOS in development
