Show HN: NoteDiscovery – Free Self-Hosted Alternative to Notion/Obsidian
Описание и применение
Пользователь создал NoteDiscovery — бесплатный самодельный текстовый органайзер, сохраняющий заметки в виде Markdown-файлов и предоставляющий современный веб-интерфейс с предпросмотром. Приложение распространяется под MIT-лицензией и разворачивается через Docker. Пользователь выбрал его вместо Obsidian из-за необходимости устанавливать программу на каждом компьютере и управления синхронизацией.
Задача
A user who relies on Obsidian for note-taking experiences friction from installing the app on multiple computers and managing syncing, seeking a simpler self-hosted alternative.
Результат
NoteDiscovery provides a free, self-hosted alternative that avoids the need to install the app on multiple computers and removes the hassle of syncing notes.
Рабочий процесс
- Install NoteDiscovery via Docker.
- Store notes as plain markdown files.
- Use the modern web UI with live preview.
- Access the app from any computer without installation or syncing.
Доказательства
I built NoteDiscovery - a self-hosted note-taking app that stores everything as plain markdown files, and most importantly, free!
Why I made this: I do like Obsidian and been using it for quite some time, but having to install in all different computers to use it in, plus the hassle of syncing notes made me think about a new alternative.
Key features: - Docker - Plain markdown files - Modern web UI with live preview
It's 100% free and MIT licensed.
Please bear in mind it's in VERY early stages so it doesn't get even close to what the excellent Obsidian can do, but for the time being it's more than enough to suit my personal needs, so depending on my availability I may be adding more features.
