Show HN: I redesigned my self-hosted data manager's UI (4k stars, v2)

Описание и применение

Переработанный пользовательский интерфейс самохостинга для управления паролями, заметками, файлами, финансами и здоровьем, использующий Vue.js, TypeScript и Vite, с отдельным фронтендом и PHP/Symfony бэкендом.

Задача

Users need a single self‑hosted platform to manage passwords, notes, files, finances, contacts, and health data without relying on cloud services.

Результат

The redesign delivers a modern, mobile‑friendly UI, separates concerns between frontend and backend, and improves developer experience with TypeScript and Vite. The project remains self‑hosted, preserving user control over sensitive data.

Рабочий процесс

• Redesign frontend: replace jQuery with Vue.js
• Separate frontend as standalone project
• Add TypeScript support
• Configure Vite for build
• Update UI for modern look and mobile friendliness
• Maintain PHP/Symfony backend
• Plan future PHP/framework upgrades
• Add Health module for doctor appointments and documents
