About plumio

plumio is a self-hosted note-taking application built around a Markdown editor with live preview, GitHub-flavored Markdown, code highlighting, tables, and math support. Notes can be organized into folders and multiple organizations, colored for quick scanning, and deployed as a single Docker container so data stays on the user's own server without third-party tracking. AGPL-3.0 licensed, it suits privacy-conscious individuals and small teams.
