Developer Zachary Zhang has released an early test build of ELY Office Suite, an open-source native office suite written in Rust and GPUI, for macOS. Linux and Windows versions are said to follow the next week.

The suite includes Word, PowerPoint, Excel, PDF, Markdown, and Git client components, using LibreOffice's LOK for the office kernel, MuPDF for PDF, and MarkText for Markdown rendering.

The author warns that the build is very early, contains many bugs, and should not be used in production. The project is described as fully open source, free of ads and bundled junk, and fully local in operation.
