  1. Trilium Notes

    Build your personal knowledge base with Trilium Notes

    Project mention: Siyuan: Privacy-first, self-hosted personal knowledge management software | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-12-25

    I can also recommend Trilium Notes [1], which I have been happily using for years. It's currently in "maintenance mode", which I personally see as a feature (no risk of bloatware).

    Self-hosted, great webapp, optional native clients and works offline.

  3. Sandstorm

    Sandstorm is a self-hostable web productivity suite. It's implemented as a security-hardened web app package manager.

    This hits close to home. I have something similar, except it's not as featureful and it's ridiculously purpose-built for me. E.g. I have one page in this app for generating PDFs of a very specific type that I need. I have another page that parses CSVs from my bank. These aren't tools I use regularly, I just need them occasionally, but they're all in one repo in one project.

    There are of course apps that do each of these, but when you start integrating them together, with their different ways of doing auth, different kinds of APIs, etc. things get so complicated. I worked in a company that integrated with some third parties and those integrations were easily 50% of the workload for the dev team and maybe 90% of the workload for support. There is so much effort being wasted on having different systems for different things.

    I feel like there's an idea out there that will solve all this for open source--maybe involving stitched GraphQL APIs, OIDC+JWT for auth, etc. Something kind of like Sandstorm[1] except with Sandstorm the different apps weren't necessarily built with Sandstorm in mind. In this system there would be a centralized identity management system like Keycloak that manages concepts like users, roles and apps, and everything else delegates auth to that centralized system.

  4. Cosmos-Server

    ☁️ The Most Secure and Easy Selfhosted Home Server. Take control of your data and privacy without sacrificing security and stability (Authentication, anti-DDOS, anti-bot)

    Project mention: coolify VS Cosmos-Server - a user suggested alternative | libhunt.com/r/coolify | 2024-09-26

    both docker and server managers

  5. Teedy

    Lightweight document management system packed with all the features you can expect from big expensive solutions (by sismics)

    Project mention: Paperless-ngx: scan, index and archive all your physical documents | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-09-30

    paperless-ngx is successor of paperless and paperless-ng. Around that time I moved to https://teedy.io which is also opensource https://github.com/sismics/docs and also support ldap.

    I've been itching to give paperless-ngx a shot because I just love it but ldap hasn't yet ended up in the docs but the pull request was merged.

    Regardless, I just love how this project just keeps coming back to life

  6. Notes

    Build your personal knowledge base with TriliumNext Notes (by TriliumNext)

    Project mention: Siyuan: Privacy-first, self-hosted personal knowledge management software | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-12-25

    As another fan of Trilium Notes for years, I just want to add that there is now also an active community fork continuing the work on the tool.
