Librum
A self-hosted Notes & Knowledge app you can run on your own server.
Librum is a self-hosted notes and knowledge-base application that you run on your own server instead of renting it as a cloud service. Self-hosting it means no per-user subscription and no third-party cloud holding your information.
Development happens in the open on GitHub; the repository has collected 5.3K stars so far. Repository activity was last recorded on Jul 1, 2024, and the project is classed as quiet / legacy in our snapshot.
Before you switch
Switching notes tools is mostly about formats. Prefer projects that store notes as plain Markdown or offer a clean export, so you are never locked in. Migrate one notebook first, live in it for a week, and only then move the archive.
Like every project listed on SelfHosted, Librum is developed in the open — you can read the code, follow development, and even contribute. Check the system requirements and the project’s own documentation linked on this page before installing.
