    📓 Plainpad - Self Hosted Note Taking App

    Does anyone know of a self-hosted simple sync-able note taking app that supports and could export markdown files? I was trying to get [plainpad](https://github.com/alextselegidis/plainpad) installed but it has defeated me. Too complicated.

  • pandoc

    Universal markup converter

    What do you mean by "export"? If you sync the Markdown files locally you could use pandoc to generate PDF, HTML, etc.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • Nextcloud

    ☁️ Nextcloud server, a safe home for all your data

    I really like the text editor in Nextcloud. It supports most Markdown markup and of course Nextcloud does quite well at syncing and sharing. You can try it right quick with docker run -d -p 8080:80 nextcloud (although more work is necessary for full-featured self-hosting).

  • Joplin

    Joplin - the secure note taking and to-do app with synchronisation capabilities for Windows, macOS, Linux, Android and iOS.

  • markor

    Text editor - Notes & ToDo (for Android) - Markdown, todo.txt, plaintext, math, ..

    You can also use Syncthing with any kind of local files only editor to make them sync-able. For example with Markor

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
