Skim is a free, open-source (MIT) email client for Windows. ✂️ Minimal on purpose: no calendar, no rules engine, no bloat. Fewer buttons, less cognitive load. ⚡ Native Rust core (Tauri 2): ~5 MB installer, sub-second cold start, instant full-text search. 🔒 Local-first, offline-ready, zero telemetry. ✦ AI on your terms: bring your own Anthropic or OpenRouter key and Skim drafts replies in your voice and answers questions across your whole mailbox.
finally a windows email client that doesn't try to be a whole operating system, love that the rust core keeps it to like 5mb

@kamilsatlkebkj Me too, man! 🤘 Enjoy!
Sub-second cold start from a 5 MB installer is genuinely impressive craft, especially with native search baked in. Really respect the discipline of cutting the calendar and rules engine instead of bolting them on.

@rukiyevatad9da greet Claude that made it possible this way 😄 When code is cheap, discipline becomes expensive.
been using it for a few days and honestly the instant full-text search is kind of wild, way faster than outlook. the minimal vibe is actually refreshing, feels like it respects my time

@arifpekgila0cj Skim respects what Outlook obviously doesn't 😄
5mb installer and sub-second cold start on windows is honestly kind of wild, my current client takes forever to open. love that ai is opt-in too.

@umberto_abbatantuono if you feel like there's missing something you want, please, do not hesitate to open an issue!
finally an email client that respects my storage and my sanity, the 5mb install is unreal on windows. love that i can just plug in my own api key and skip the data-sucking defaults.

@asyadizili Enjoy! 🫶
