Harp vs Oblique Strategies
Side-by-side comparison of two open source alternatives
Harp
Harp is a privacy centric on-device Personal Health Record application allowing you to create and manage records in plain Org Mode files that are completely under your control. Track journals, metrics, reminders, and medical documents in one place without any cloud account requirement. Files are stored in a transparent, portable Org-based structure, so your data remains readable outside the app and easy to version, sync, or back up with tools you already trust. Attach photos and files to entries, search across your records, and keep sensitive health information local-first by default.
Oblique Strategies
A deck of cards. Over one hundred worthwhile dilemmas. Insights into creative processes. Gnomic challenges, constraints, and questions for you to interpret. First published by Brian Eno and Peter Schmidt in 1975, Oblique Strategies is a tool for working past creative blocks and reorienting (or disorienting) thought processes. This app presents you with a single strategy card at a time. - Swipe to reveal the next card. - Use the back button to bring previous cards back. - Create recurring notifications. - Favorites cards to change how frequently they occur.
