AFFiNE vs Capacities

AFFiNE is an open-source knowledge management application that combines documents, whiteboards, and databases in a unified workspace. It operates as a local-first application with optional cloud sync and end-to-end encryption. AFFiNE supports both block-based document editing and freeform canvas-style edgeless editing.

Capacities is a note-taking and knowledge management app that uses an object-based approach where notes are typed entities (people, books, meetings, etc.) with relationships between them. It provides a structured way to organize interconnected information.
