## What it is
AFFiNE is an open-source, local-first knowledge base workspace that merges documents, whiteboards, and databases into a single block-based editor. It is positioned as a privacy-focused alternative to Notion and Miro, with optional AI features and self-hosting support.

## Use cases
- replace notion with an open-source knowledge base
- whiteboard and docs in one app
- self-host a private wiki for my team
- local-first note taking app
- collaborative mind mapping and planning
- build a team document workspace
- markdown editor with database views

## When to choose
- you want docs, canvas, and tables unified in one workspace
- you need local-first storage and full data control
- you want to self-host a Notion/Miro alternative
- you want an open-source, MIT-licensed editor core

## When to avoid
- you need a fully open-source backend (self-hosted backend is source-available)
- you rely on deep Notion/Miro ecosystem integrations or imports
- you only need a lightweight plain-text notes app
- you require mature enterprise compliance features out of the box
