🐛 Reporting a bug?
This is very early days of this project, therefore unexpected bugs, UI glitches and data-corruptions related issues may occur. I’d personally and strongly recommend to keep taking backups daily to not to loose any data if something bad happens.
Before reporting a bug or glitch, please confirm if it is not previously reported. Give most possible information about the issue: reproduction steps, OS/environments specifics and any possible suggestions to fix it.

🚨 Reporting a security vulnerability?
Swiftness project was initially started to combat my day-to-day personal issues related to managing findings and checklist and was never built in mind for cross-platform support. However, to fulfill the gap for other OS, I decided to switch the project to ElectronJS. With the better flexibility, it came with a drawback of having too much dependencies on 3rd party libraries, ultimately, more concerns related to its security.
What measures we’ve been taking:
View
- Kept the 3rd party dependencies lower, and built most of the modules from scratch.
- Tested injection related vulnerabilities.
- Regular check-up on 0-day vulnerabilities of the dependencies.
Where to report?

You can send an email to [email protected], please provide as much as possible information on reproducing and fixing the vulnerabilities. We’re already aware of a few security vulnerabilities and working on to fix it.

Also check the package.json to see this project dependencies.
We aim to release a major new update every 3 months, hoping to short this cycle however, testing and fixing the glitches for all the platforms take a bit time. Moreover, this project is maintained on weekends so you may see some slow replies on emails or issues.
