## What it is
Ech0 is an open-source, self-hosted lightweight publishing platform for sharing personal ideas and short notes, built with Go and Vue 3 on SQLite. It functions as a personal microblog/memo service deployable via Docker.

## Use cases
- self-host a personal microblog for sharing short thoughts
- publish quick notes and ideas online with markdown support
- run a lightweight memo service on a small server
- keep a private or public stream of personal notes
- replace hosted note-sharing apps with a self-hosted alternative
- deploy a minimal social publishing site with SQLite storage

## When to choose
- you want a lightweight, low-resource self-hosted microblog or memo platform
- you prefer SQLite over running a full database server
- you want Docker-based one-command deployment
- you need markdown-based publishing with a modern Vue 3 frontend

## When to avoid
- you need a full-featured blog with themes, comments, and plugins
- you require multi-user community features or federation (e.g., ActivityPub)
- you need PostgreSQL/MySQL or horizontal scaling
- you want a static-site generator instead of a running web service
