Jotty, a lightweight, self hosted notes and checklists app that seeds its own admin the moment it boots.
Jotty is an open source, privacy first app for notes, checklists and kanban boards in Markdown. It gives individuals and teams a self hosted place to keep short form knowledge and tasks under their own control, with no SQL database to run - everything is stored as plain Markdown and JSON files.
cloudimg ships Jotty preconfigured on a hardened, fully patched Ubuntu 24.04 base as the official container behind an nginx reverse proxy, with all notes on a dedicated data disk. A unique admin account is seeded on first boot, closing the first visitor self registration risk with no default login, and 24/7 support is included.
