Well, I like to self-host apps and services that I use daily.

This article will show you how to make it all happen and run it inside Docker on your Synology NAS along with (also free and open-source) all extensions that SN offers.īefore I get into all that just a few words why bother with this scenario in the first place.

If you are looking a bit more, like support for markdown, code, themes, 2Fa, etc, then you will need to either pay a small monthly fee or host them yourself. More than enough for the majority of people. With its spartan looks and features, out of the box, you get a free note-taking app with sync. SN offers also a paid solution unless you don't feel up to it hosting it yourself and offers about 30 extensions at the moment to make your instance even more powerful than a simple notes app. Brilliant, just as Bitwarden setup is for passwords. You can host it yourself, preserving the data 100% on-site, access it anywhere from a web browser app connected to your server. From a modern minimalistic look to a full mobile and desktop app, along with 2FA support, FaceID, and super fast sync service that just works. Key features of Standard Notes More features can be unlocked with extensions (also free and covered by this tutorial)Īs you can see from the images above, SN offers a lot. Not another one of those notes apps am I, right? I mean we have Synology Note Station, a globally popular Evernote, Apple Notes, Bear app, and a million others, so what makes Standard Notes special? Notes? Who needs a notes app.?īefore I write a bit about why this article should make sense, in case you are not interested in what I have to say and are looking for the know-how of running this on your own Docker (Synology) platform, jump down to the 'Requirements' section.
