Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

how this compare with https://github.com/Stirling-Tools/Stirling-PDF ?
i have this hosted, should i switch?
It depends on you use case. Stirling PDF focuses on performing various operations like splitting, cropping and rotating on your PDFs. PdfDing has a different focus, it is all about reading and organizing your PDFs. I started this project because I wanted a web app where I can read longer PDFs seamlessly on my desktop and mobile devices.
The newly added editing features were implemented with the aim of improving the reading experience. If I find something important I can add an annotation or highlight something. When studying you can add free hand notes to your files.
I hope that helps in differentiating the two applications.
very cool, are you planning an android app?
It is not planned right now as I never developed an android app before. But who knows, I am also not a frontend dev, yet here we are :D
I am planning on developing a Rest API, hopefully I can do this in such a way that someone from community is able to create a mobile application.
I nowadays I don't see much benefit of dedicated Android apps in these cases (clients of hosted content). If your webapp works well for mobile browsers than making it a pwa is not much more than adding a single file and it feels pretty native to me. So you safe tons of development work. Or am I missing on something?
