Overview

TriliumNext Notes is an advanced, open-source personal knowledge base application designed for users who want complete control over their data and a highly organized system for managing information. It allows for the creation of a deeply nested, hierarchical structure of notes, making it easy to categorize and retrieve information on any topic. The tool supports various content formats, from plain text and rich text to code blocks, images, and file attachments, ensuring that all types of data can be stored and linked effectively.

Its core value proposition lies in its self-hosted nature, which guarantees data privacy and eliminates reliance on third-party cloud services. Users can deploy TriliumNext on their own servers or local machines, giving them full ownership and control over their knowledge. This makes it an excellent choice for developers, researchers, and anyone who deals with sensitive information or simply prefers to keep their digital assets off public clouds. While it offers powerful organizational features and a robust backend, users should be prepared for the technical aspects of setting up and maintaining a self-hosted application.
