Hi, does anybody know any notetaking app which supports sync with caldav server ? I am self-hosting a Radicale server which on android with DAVx5 client and jtx Board app works pretty well! I have searched on web but haven’t found any desktop alternative to jtxBoard yet which supports this protocol. Anybody using this setup ?
It’s not CalDAV, but Joplin supports syncing with WebDAV and works great with Nextcloud (or any WebDAV server, really).
Nextcloud is a love it / hate it kind of thing. Since you’re not already running it, I assume you don’t want to (fwiw, it also does Cal- and CardDAV). Filerun used to be the go-to alternative, but it sold out and is all paid now. I’m not sure what took its place, but at the very least you should be able to setup a basic WebDAV server using just Apache.
The only thing I don’t like about Joplin is it doesn’t have a web app (at least, not as of the last time I checked).
There was another note-taking app I was thinking of and about to suggest, but it syncs over IMAP.
You may need to do some tricks in your reverse proxy to get it to coexist with Radicale under the same domain, but it’s doable. Certainly a lot more lightweight than running Nextcloud just for a webdav service.

Umm. Definitely it’s in my to-do list. But for now I just wish Joplin had some caldav features in it :(
Here’s a decent guide to setting up WebDAV with Apache if you’re interested: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-configure-webdav-access-with-apache-on-ubuntu-20-04

Thank you. Will check.
+1 for Joplin. Works really great and has some good plugins if you need to extend it.
Don’t leave us hanging, what is this mystical notes app that syncs over imap?

I was thinking a desktop app. I’ve played with imapnotes3 and jtxboard.
