Alexandrie

Alexandrie provides a structured knowledge base with an extended Markdown editor, granular per-document permissions, and offline editing through its progressive web app. The CodeMirror 6 editor goes well beyond standard Markdown with colored containers, academic callout blocks, KaTeX math expressions, syntax-highlighted code blocks, footnotes, interactive checkboxes, cards, panels, and a custom snippet system with import and export. Full-text search via the Ctrl+K command center returns instant results with content snippets and relevance ranking across all workspaces. Five permission levels covering None, Read, Write, Admin, and Owner apply per document and per user, while OIDC single sign-on integrates with Google, GitHub, Microsoft, Discord, and any OpenID Connect provider. Documents organize into a hierarchical tree of workspaces, categories, and nested entries with tags, bookmarks, pinned notes, and custom icons. Integrated Kanban boards handle task management within each workspace without switching applications. The PWA installs on any device for full offline editing with seamless sync when connectivity returns. Voice-to-text dictation captures notes hands-free, and one-click ZIP backup exports all documents, files, and settings as a portable archive. Over 2,000 GitHub stars and 41 releases back the project. The Docker Compose stack orchestrates the Nuxt 4 frontend, Go Gin backend, MySQL 8 database, and S3-compatible RustFS object storage. Running on a VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. MIT licensed.
