Memos is an open‑source, self‑hosted note‑taking web application built with Go and React. It stores Markdown notes in SQLite and provides a timeline, tags, and selective sharing.

Use cases

• Capture quick Markdown notes without templates or folders
• Organize personal memos with tags, pins, and a chronological timeline
• Self‑host a private note‑taking service on your own server or Docker
• Save web pages, selections, and images directly into Markdown memos via the browser clipper
• Publish selected memos publicly while keeping the rest private

When to choose

• You need full control over your data with zero telemetry
• You prefer a lightweight, Markdown‑first note‑taking tool
• You want to run the service on your own infrastructure (Docker, Linux, macOS, Windows)
• You like a simple timeline view for daily logs and snippets

When to avoid

• You require real‑time collaborative editing or extensive document management
• You need advanced rich‑text formatting beyond Markdown
• You are looking for a hosted SaaS solution with built‑in backups and support
