I'd assume what makes alternate ports rare is the fact that the entire implementation is in elisp. So any alternate implementation has to start by finding (or implementing) a parser with good compatibility and maintainability.

Orgzly does it well enough for simple cases but if you try to use it for much more than a basic notes/reminder system you’ll run up against limitations fast since a lot of useful behavior like complex date formats leverage the elisp hole to work.

Out of curiosity: have an example? I've only used relatively-simple formats in queries, never in todos, haven't hit any issues yet.

Seems like it'd probably be a parser limitation or something tho? Or are some of the formats lisp-code-like and need to be executed?
