French gov's open source alternative to Notion or Outline

1. docs

   1 7 11,373 9.9 Python

   A collaborative note taking, wiki and documentation platform that scales. Built with Django and React. Opensource alternative to Notion or Outline. (by suitenumerique)

   

   There's a hosted test instance with pre-existing test account:

   https://github.com/suitenumerique/docs?tab=readme-ov-file#te...

   Logging in just works. Easy to try it out there.

   The official French hosted instance requiring some French-specific stuff seems pretty normal. Likely specific to that instance's authentication system, not the Docs software itself.

6. Trilium Notes

   Build your personal knowledge base with Trilium Notes

   

   It depends on what subset of Notion you use. Nothing (including Notion) is perfect for me. I'd like to build my own eventually, but I'm currently using Obsidian which doesn't hit your "works in the browser" requirement.

   One option, which is open source and self hosted, is Trilium[sic], found at https://github.com/zadam/trilium It's open source, so if it's close to what you want, you might be able to adjust it to meet your needs.

   Other commercial options include Realm, Tana, and Craft. With varying degrees of "AI".

   I really like the UX of Tana for building out graphs of pages with properties, but it's slow to start up, doesn't support math, etc. So it's mainly a UX example for me.
