If it's a local deployment, the hostname should be localhost instead of loclhost.

Actually @shobeira you are not running the api I guess. Did you ran

mage build and ./vikunja

Also you need to make sure that you have mage installed to use the build command

Also try curl http://localhost:3456 to see if api is running

It is a local deployment. Replacing localhost (instead of loclhost) did not change the output on the AppImage.

I haven't used the API. I just made the AppImage executable and lunched it.

curl: (7) Failed to connect to localhost port 3456 after 0 ms: Could not connect to server

You need to have a Vikunja API server running somewhere, the desktop app is not standalone. You can run the api on your local machine or somewhere else, as long as it's accessible from your computer.

(If you want a hassle-free option, check out Vikunja Cloud)
