Quick Start

Deploy on VPS (Docker)

cd NoteGraph
cp .env.example .env
# Edit .env with your credentials
docker compose up -d

SilverBullet will be available at https://notes.andreknie.de (or whatever domain you configure).

Local Development

docker compose up -d
# Access at http://localhost:3000

Features

Phase 1 (Current)

  • SilverBullet deployment (Docker)
  • Git-backed markdown storage
  • Wiki-links ([[note title]]) and backlinks
  • Full-text search
  • Tags and metadata
  • Offline PWA (mobile access)
  • Auto-commit to Git

Phase 2 (Planned)

Integration with OrgMyLife

Notes can be linked to OrgMyLife tasks via tags:

  • Tag a note with #task/123 to link it to task #123
  • The OrgMyLife dashboard can surface relevant notes for upcoming meetings
  • Tasks created from notes maintain traceability
