Anytype is a **personal knowledge base**—your digital brain—that lets you gather, connect and remix all kinds of information. Create pages, tasks, wikis, journals—even entire apps—and *define your own data model* while your data stays **offline‑first, private and encrypted** across devices.
## ✨ Key Features
- **Offline‑first, local storage** with optional peer‑to‑peer sync.
- **Zero‑knowledge encryption** powered by *any‑sync*.
- **Composable blocks**: text, databases, kanban, calendar & custom Types.
- **Cross‑platform desktop client** built with Electron + TypeScript.
- **Extensible** through a gRPC API and AI "Agents" (see [`AGENTS.md`](./AGENTS.md)).
- **Open code** under the Any Source Available License 1.0.
