Anchor is an offline-first, self-hostable note taking application with a rich text editor, tags, attachments, and note history. Notes are stored locally, editable offline, and synced across devices when online, with web and Android clients.

Use cases

  • self-host a private note taking app
  • take notes offline and sync across devices
  • migrate notes from Google Keep
  • share notes with other users on my own server
  • attach images and audio to notes
  • organize notes with tags and colors

When to choose

  • you want full control and privacy by self-hosting your notes
  • you need offline editing with automatic sync when back online
  • you want OIDC login with providers like Keycloak or Authelia
  • you need both web and Android access with a home screen widget

When to avoid

  • you want a zero-setup hosted note service without running a server
  • you need real-time collaborative multi-user editing
  • you need iOS or desktop native clients
  • you want markdown-first plain text workflows
