CodiMD

CodiMD lets you create real-time collaborative markdown notes. You can test-drive it by visiting our CodiMD demo server.

It is inspired by Hackpad, Etherpad and similar collaborative editors. This project originated with the team at HackMD and now forked into its own organisation. A longer writeup can be read in the history doc.

Installation / Upgrading

You can run CodiMD in a number of ways, and we created setup instructions for all of these:

If you do not wish to run your own setup, you can find a commercial offering at https://hackmd.io. This is not the same codebase as this one, but it is a very similar project.

Configuration

Theres two main ways to configure your CodiMD instance: config file or environment variables. You can choose what works best for you.

CodiMD can integrate with

facebook, twitter, github, gitlab, mattermost, dropbox, google, ldap, saml and oauth2 for login
imgur, s3, minio, azure for image/attachment storage (files can also be local!)
dropbox for export and import

More info about that can be found in the configuration docs above.
