AppFlowy, an open source Notion alternative for docs, wikis and projects, self hosted so your whole workspace lives on infrastructure you control.
AppFlowy is an open source alternative to Notion for notes, documents, wikis, tasks and lightweight project boards. It gives teams a single collaborative workspace where pages combine rich text, checklists, tables and boards, all organised into shared workspaces. This is the fully self hosted edition: the AppFlowy backend and its web application run entirely on your own server, so your documents and data stay inside your own cloud account rather than a hosted service. It suits teams that want the familiar all in one workspace experience of a modern docs and knowledge tool while keeping complete ownership of where their content is stored.
Users sign up and sign in with an email and password, create and share workspaces, and edit pages together, while an administration console lets an operator manage the accounts on the server.
cloudimg delivers the complete AppFlowy backend, web application, authentication service, database, cache and object store wired together and answering in the browser the moment the instance boots, with no compose files to assemble by hand. It is secure by default with no baked credential: the upstream project ships well known example passwords, and cloudimg bakes none of them. On the first boot of every instance a fresh database password, authentication signing secret, administrator password and object store keys are generated and written to a root only file, so no two instances share a secret and no upstream default ever governs a running server. The database, cache and object store are bound to the instance and never exposed directly, all traffic is fronted by a single web server, the workspace and document store lives on a dedicated data volume captured into the image, the base is fully patched with unattended security upgrades enabled, and every deployment is paired with a step by step deploy guide and backed by 24/7 cloudimg support.
