appflowy-io/appflowy — Bring projects, wikis, and teams together with AI. AppFlowy is the AI collaborative workspace where you achieve more without losing control of your data. The leading open source Notion alternative. (78,626 stars, AGPL-3.0, database, integration, ui).
These are the closest projects in the JustClaw-It index that we serve licence-cleared code from, ranked by relevance and by our code-quality score (1–10, the mean over each repo's graded components: completeness, code quality, deployability, reusability, strategic value). JustClaw-It does not serve code from appflowy-io/appflowy itself (licence class: network-copyleft), so these alternatives are the licence-cleared route.
