Memos

Fast enough for every thought. Private enough for all of them.

Memos is an open-source, self-hosted home for short-form thinking. Daily notes, links, work logs, and snippets flow into a chronological Markdown timeline—on infrastructure you control, without the overhead of an all-in-one workspace.

Run with Docker · Try the live demo · Read the docs

Why Memos?

• Capture quickly — Write in Markdown, attach media, and save without choosing a title, folder, or template.
• Organize lightly — Revisit notes through the timeline, search, tags, and pins.
• Share selectively — Keep memos private or publish only what you choose.
• Keep control — Self-host Memos with zero telemetry and MIT-licensed source.

  -v ~/.memos:/var/opt/memos \
  neosmemo/memos:stable

Open http://localhost:5230 and start writing. See the deployment guide for other installation options.
