I am setting up my notes approach which is using dedicated apps on my devices plus syncthing.

I tried lots of tools like Joplin obsidian etc but are too overkill or had something I don’t like.

So I am using markor on android and another dedicated app on Linux and so on.

I would like to add also a web app to edit the MD files directly on my server when I don’t have any way to install syncthing or an editor app.

The web GUI would need to list the MD files local on the server and let me edit/view/save them. Upload and download is not required as I already have that setup via filebrowser.

Any hints?

Edit: to be clear, i am not looking for an IDE or anything fancy, i only need to edit some notes online on my server. I do not want to spin containers or deploy full VS solutions just for this, all i need is a web gui editor for MD with the capability to load files on the server

Second edit: i ended up selfhosting Silverbullet.md which made my day. Exactly what i was looking for, even more than that. Thanks all!

    How about using code-server and pointing it to your markdown folder? While it’s a code editor, it also has built-in markdown preview. Installation is also easy and doesn’t require docker.
