GNOME Notes and CalDav (jemmy.jeena.net)

I'm looking into the possibility to move my personal notes from NextCloud to CalDav, it seems to have the possibility to store notes with and without dates and also todo lists. The todo lists can be used nicelly in HomeAssistant too.

But it seems that the GNOME Notes app doesn't sync to CalDav when you try to look it up on their website. Evolution does though, but it's so bulky.

Turns out gnome-notes does to some degree implement CalDav. In the perferences I can choose which is the primary storage location, and there the two calendars I have set up in Evolution show up.

And when I write a new note in the gnome-notes app, it even shows up in Evolution and on my phone! Great success! But for some reason when I create a note in Evolution it does not show up in gnome-notes.

I have see Errands recently (modern looking gnome app using libadwaita), available through Flatpak. It can sync with my local radical server and it also has native NextCloud and CalDav support, but in it's current state it seems not be able to filter done notes/tasks/todos.

It looks very good, I started using it and like it a lot. It synchronices really nicely with CalDav, amazing, thanks again!

Glad, I could help. It is nice to see having more and more good looking (libadwaita) and robust apps these days. (:

Since Gnome 45, libadwaita got a real momentum!

I agree, I also saw that that on was written in python which is kind of cool.
