Description

Research workflows are fragmented. Literature lives in Zotero, notes scatter across Notion, ideas disappear into paper notebooks — none of which talk to each other, and all of which require internet, accounts, or subscriptions.

Eukosmos is a single-file, browser-based research notebook that unifies a researcher's entire workflow in one place: literature papers with NASA ADS/SciX/arXiv/InspireHEP auto-fill, BibTeX bulk import with smart abstract fetching, Markdown and LaTeX notes, a research ideas kanban, proposal and job tracking, a unified deadline calendar with iCal sync, code library, and more — all stored as plain JSON on the user's own machine.

No installation beyond Python 3 and pip install icalendar python-dateutil. No cloud. No subscription. No account. It works offline at telescopes, on planes, and in remote observatories. Data is portable, reproducible, and yours forever.

Eukosmos is open source (MIT License) and available at https://github.com/rmajidul/eukosmos.
