CryptPad VS EtherCalc

I'm looking for the same. Open source, self hosted, and end-to-end encrypted.

I haven't found anything that really does all of this, but it seems like Cryptpad[0] and Peergos[1] are viable platforms upon which something like this could be built.

Except for encryption, Atomic Data[2] seems like a really cool platform to build this on.

I see that they claim all of their apps and libraries are open source[0]. But they only link to the OpenPGP libraries they're using. Is this actually open source? Following the "Open Source" footer link[1], here they only link to the ProtonMail Github account with nothing mentioning ProtonDrive.

And if it is actually open source, I'd love to see a comparison to CryptPad[2]

> which is why we’ve made all our apps and encryption libraries open source

In my frustration with MS Office, I gave it a chance and searched for MS Office alternatives ... and found https://github.com/cryptpad/cryptpad ! Looks quite nice. Maybe I should set that up on a server.

https://cryptpad.org/

There's a public instance in France to try it out.

CryptPad provides a full-fledged office suite with all the tools necessary for productive collaboration.

I discovered these 3 amazing projects recently:

Cryptpad, essentially google docs/sheets/forms e2e encrypted. It does include collaboration. https://github.com/cryptpad/cryptpad

Immich, google photos self hostable, with share options https://github.com/immich-app/immich

Nginxproxymanager manages certificates and proxies to self hosted stuff through nginx https://github.com/NginxProxyManager/nginx-proxy-manager

Great self hosting stuff!

I work for XWiki SAS. Two products we develop have it:

- XWiki, a extensible wiki platform, experimentally [1] but soon to be fully supported

- CryptPad [2], an end-to-end encrypted collaborative platform. And actually, CryptPad was accidentally born as a first attempt to have this feature in XWiki.

Hey, very happy to see you so enthusiastic!

I'll be sure to transmit your feedback to the CryptPad team.

I'm not an expert myself so while I might know some stuff, it'd be better to talk to them directly.

Come say hello on the Matrix #cryptpad-general channel [1], don't hesitate to open issues on the bug tracker, and to browse the CryptPad's website [2].

I don't know if these will suit the latency requirements that you're outlining, but they might very well be what you're looking for.

Somewhat random, but spreadsheets continued to evolve after VisiCalc (obviously).

Here is one by the inventor of VisiCalc, Dan Bricklin, on github: https://github.com/DanBricklin/socialcalc

Audrey Tang (who happens to currently serve as the Minister of Digital Affairs of the Republic of China (Taiwan)) created the Node.js port of SocialCalc, EtherCalc: https://github.com/audreyt/ethercalc

Audrey made a fascinating write up of SocialCalc for The Architecture of Open Source Applications https://aosabook.org/en/v1/socialcalc.html

if you need office stuff ON CLOUD then no idea there are several random ones like https://github.com/audreyt/ethercalc (demo on top right the website works fine and is multi-user collab) and there are libreoffice ones that work in cloud too, though using them in browser never really made sense to anything I've seen. I've never been to any office or consulted anywhere that multi-user actually helped anyone.

I think there's several possible solutions: * No-code/low-code database platforms (e.g., NocoDB) * Personal finance manager (e.g., Firefly III) * Spreadsheets (e.g., CryptPad for a full office suite or Ethercalc) * Task management systems (e.g., Vikunja)

Office solutions (e.g., spreadsheets): CryptPad and EtherCalc

ethercalc: supports editing by multiple clients simultaneously. Pretty easy to setup.

Try CryptPad or EtherCalc.

Ethercalc, although a bit dated, works ok on docker https://github.com/audreyt/ethercalc
