Open Canvas
Open-source alternative to OpenAI's Canvas — a collaborative writing and coding environment where AI agents help you draft, edit, and refine documents through an agentic architecture built on LangGraph. The dual-mode editor combines a BlockNote rich text editor for live-rendered markdown with a CodeMirror-based code editor supporting syntax highlighting across multiple programming languages, letting you switch between prose and code artifacts within the same session. The built-in reflection agent automatically generates style rules and user insights from your chat history, storing them in a shared LangGraph memory store that persists across sessions for increasingly personalized assistance. Pre-built quick actions provide one-click access to common writing transformations including summarize, expand, simplify, and translate, while coding actions offer explain, refactor, add comments, and convert between languages. The monorepo architecture separates the Next.js 14 frontend from the LangGraph agent backend, connecting via HTTP and WebSocket protocols through the @langchain/langgraph-sdk client. Seven LLM providers are supported out of the box — OpenAI, Anthropic Claude, Google Gemini, Fireworks AI, Groq, Azure OpenAI, and local Ollama models — with Supabase handling authentication and data persistence. Deploy via Docker or build from source. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. MIT licensed.
WhoDB
With nearly 5,000 GitHub stars earned in under two years, WhoDB has rapidly emerged as the lightweight alternative to heavyweight database clients like DBeaver and DataGrip by delivering a sub-50MB binary that starts in under a second and connects to 18+ database systems from a single interface. The Go backend serves the React and TypeScript frontend with table virtualization for efficient rendering of large result sets, lazy loading, and query result streaming that keeps the interface responsive even when browsing tables with millions of rows. The Community Edition connects to PostgreSQL, CockroachDB, YugabyteDB, MySQL, MariaDB, TiDB, SQLite, DuckDB, MongoDB, FerretDB, Redis, Valkey, Dragonfly, Elasticsearch, OpenSearch, ClickHouse, QuestDB, and Memcached through a unified credential selector that switches between databases with minimal configuration. Interactive schema diagrams render entity-relationship graphs showing table structures, foreign keys, and column types for visual database exploration. The Jupyter-style query scratchpad provides SQL autocomplete, syntax highlighting, and multi-statement execution with paginated results. AI integration optionally connects to Ollama, OpenAI, Anthropic, LM Studio, or any OpenAI-compatible provider for natural language database queries — ask questions in plain English and receive generated SQL. Data management includes inline row editing, CSV export, and filtered data views. Docker deployment runs a single container exposing port 8080. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. Apache-2.0 licensed.
Overleaf
Multiple authors can edit the same LaTeX document simultaneously in the browser with live cursor tracking, conflict-free merging, and instant PDF compilation on every save. Overleaf Community Edition brings the collaborative editing experience that millions of researchers and academics rely on, with no compile time limits, storage quotas, or collaborator caps imposed by the hosted tiers. The web editor provides syntax highlighting, auto-completion, and bracket matching alongside an integrated PDF preview panel powered by a bundled TeX Live distribution supporting pdfLaTeX, XeLaTeX, and LuaLaTeX engines. The file tree panel organizes multi-file projects with separate files for chapters, figures, bibliography references, and style definitions. BibTeX and Biber handle bibliography management, and detailed compilation logs offer clickable error navigation to the exact source line causing each issue. Users upload images, PDFs, and data files directly through the browser, and a template gallery provides starting points for journal articles, conference papers, theses, presentations, and CVs. Over 17,800 GitHub stars and a decade of active development anchor the project. The application runs as containerized microservices including the Node.js web application, MongoDB for persistence, and Redis for session management. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. AGPL-3.0 licensed.
code-server
With over 78,000 GitHub stars, 270 contributors, and seven years of continuous development tracking upstream VS Code releases within days, code-server has become the definitive way to run a full Visual Studio Code IDE on any remote machine and access it from any browser on any device. The project applies a curated set of patches to Microsoft's VS Code codebase that add password authentication, sub-path hosting behind reverse proxies, self-contained web views that never call out to Microsoft servers, a built-in proxy for accessing ports on the remote machine directly through the VS Code ports panel, and on-disk settings persistence instead of browser storage. The extension ecosystem works with the Open VSX marketplace by default, giving access to thousands of extensions for Python, JavaScript, Go, Rust, Java, and every other language, along with themes, linters, formatters, and debuggers. The integrated terminal provides direct shell access to the server, Git integration handles version control without leaving the editor, and the debugger supports breakpoints, variable inspection, and step-through execution for Node.js, Python, Go, and other runtimes. DevContainer support enables reproducible development environments defined in JSON configuration files. Installation options include a one-line install script, manual package installation, Docker via the official codercom/code-server image, and DevContainer features. Minimum requirements are a Linux machine with 1GB RAM, 2 vCPUs, and WebSocket support. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. MIT licensed.
DbGate
One browser tab can hold every database you manage, from MySQL and PostgreSQL to MongoDB and Redis, so there is no separate client to install for each engine. Connections are unlimited, and each can use its own SSH tunnel or SSL certificates. Tables open in an Excel-like grid where you edit cells inline, filter rows with expressions, and sort by any column. The SQL editor offers schema-aware code completion, a formatter, a join helper that builds clauses from foreign keys, query parameters, and a history of past runs, while result sets appear in separate tabs that you can filter, sort, and export. ER diagrams chart tables and their relations. The table editor creates columns, keys, and indexes and previews the SQL before anything is applied. Import and export move data between databases and files as SQL, CSV, JSON, XML, NDJSON, Excel, DBF, or YAML. Administrators can preconfigure connections through environment variables, mark them read-only, and protect the interface with logins that carry per-user permissions. Light and dark themes, customizable keyboard shortcuts, and translations into many languages keep daily work comfortable. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. GPL-3.0 licensed.
Tabularis
Instead of installing a different client for every database engine on your servers, Tabularis gives you one SQL workspace in the browser that speaks to PostgreSQL, MySQL, MariaDB, and SQLite directly, and to 26 more engines through installable driver plugins. The SQL editor autocompletes real table and column names as you type, runs multi-statement batches into separate result tabs, and can draw any result set as a bar or line chart. Notebooks mix executable SQL cells with Markdown and charts, sharing variables across cells for repeatable reports and investigations. You can edit rows inline in a virtualized grid that tracks pending changes before committing, build queries by dragging tables onto a canvas that writes the SQL for you, and generate an ER diagram from the live schema to see how everything connects. Natural-language prompts turn into SQL through OpenAI, Anthropic, Ollama, or any compatible endpoint you configure. Results export to CSV, JSON, or Markdown, whole databases dump to SQL files, and scheduled daily backups keep copies without manual effort. Connections reach databases through SSH or Kubernetes tunnels, and the built-in MCP server lets agents like Claude and Cursor inspect schemas and run queries under your control. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. Apache-2.0 licensed.
HolyClaude
With 2,400+ GitHub stars, HolyClaude replaces a two-hour manual setup process with a single docker compose up command that launches a fully configured AI coding workstation. The container ships with Claude Code pre-installed alongside seven additional AI CLIs — Gemini CLI, OpenAI Codex, Cursor, TaskMaster AI, Junie, OpenCode with OpenRouter multi-provider support, and Pi Coding Agent — all accessible through the CloudCLI browser-based web interface on port 3001. A headless Chromium browser running on Xvfb display :99 comes pre-configured with Playwright 1.61 for automated screenshots, testing, and web scraping without additional setup. The development toolchain includes Node.js 26, Python 3, TypeScript, git, GitHub CLI, database clients for PostgreSQL, SQLite, and Redis, plus deployment CLIs for Vercel, Wrangler, Netlify, and Azure. Process management uses s6-overlay for automatic restarts and graceful shutdown, while bind mounts to ./data/claude and ./workspace ensure credentials, configuration, and project files persist across container rebuilds. The full image supports AMD64 and ARM64 architectures, running on Linux, macOS with Docker Desktop, Windows with WSL2, and Synology or QNAP NAS hardware. A slim tag at roughly 2GB omits the browser stack for environments that do not need it, while the full image at 4GB includes everything. Users authenticate with their existing Anthropic account directly through Claude Code with no credential relay or proxy involved. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. MIT licensed.
Aldine
Paper co-authors usually trade .tex files by email or pay for a hosted editor seat by seat; Aldine replaces both with a self-hosted LaTeX workspace where the whole team types in one document at once and sees a typeset PDF seconds later. Live cursors and presence show who is editing which paragraph, and the underlying sync is conflict-free, so two authors can rewrite the same section without overwriting each other. Every project is a real git repository: branch a draft, edit it independently, and merge it back from the interface when the argument holds together. Connect GitHub, GitLab, Gitea, or Forgejo to push and pull without leaving the editor, watch ahead and behind indicators, resolve conflicts, and open a pull or merge request on the merged result. Moving in is painless, since an exported Overleaf project ZIP dropped on the home screen imports with its root file detected and its first typeset automatic. Citations come from your own Zotero library or a single collection, kept in sync as a .bib file and inserted from a search panel or \cite autocomplete. Reviewers select text and leave anchored, threaded comments, optionally with a suggested replacement the author accepts in one click. Compiles run in a sandboxed container with no network access, warm recompiles land in about two seconds, and errors jump to the offending line. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. AGPL-3.0 licensed.
NoteDiscovery
Transforming fragmented research notes, daily technical logs, and project documentation into an interconnected knowledge base is what NoteDiscovery delivers for privacy-conscious teams and researchers. Writers compose rich documents using a dual-pane editor that renders MathJax equations, interactive task lists, and dynamic Mermaid sequence diagrams side by side with raw text. The interactive knowledge graph maps semantic relationships across notebooks, allowing researchers to explore backlinks, uncover hidden topical connections, and navigate complex idea webs visually. Team members sketch architecture diagrams and wireframes directly inside note canvases using the integrated drawing tool, saving revisions as embedded image layers without external editors. The platform organizes thoughts through flexible tag hierarchies, nested folder trees, and reusable document templates equipped with automatic date and variable substitutions. Autonomous coding assistants and language models query documentation, create structured meeting summaries, and update project indexes directly through the native Model Context Protocol server. Built-in export tools convert notebook collections into standalone HTML packages, printable documents, or portable Markdown archives for offline archiving. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. MIT licensed.
webtrees
webtrees turns a GEDCOM family file into a private, collaborative genealogy website where relatives anywhere browse ancestors, add photos and sources, and edit together under privacy rules the owner controls. Import a file and each person gets a page of facts, events, and citations, with tabs for families, sources, places, media, and albums and a navigator that jumps to parents, spouses, children, and siblings. Pedigree, fan, hourglass, compact, descendant, interactive, lifespan, relationship, and timeline charts show the same people from different angles, and a pedigree map plots ancestors' birthplaces on OpenStreetMap. Lists sort and filter individuals, families, sources, notes, repositories, and media, with branches that group people by surname. A calendar surfaces births, deaths, marriages, and anniversaries for any day, month, or year, in Gregorian, Julian, Jewish, Hijri, or Jalali dates. Printable PDF reports cover Ahnentafel, family group, descendancy, birth, death, and cemetery records, and search offers general, advanced, and search-and-replace modes for authorized users. Privacy rules apply per site, tree, user, record, and fact, so only authorized users see living people and sensitive details. Editors propose changes, moderators approve them, one site hosts several trees, and the interface comes in more than 60 languages. GEDCOM export lets every tree move to desktop genealogy programs. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. GPL-3.0 licensed.
OnlyOffice
With 6,800 GitHub stars and over a decade of development since its 2014 release, ONLYOFFICE Docs delivers a self-hosted Microsoft Office replacement with pixel-perfect OOXML rendering and real-time collaborative editing supporting both Fast (character-by-character) and Strict (manual save) co-authoring modes. The suite encompasses five full-featured editors — Document Editor for DOCX/ODT/EPUB/HTML, Spreadsheet Editor with 500+ functions and pivot tables, Presentation Editor with animations and transitions, Form Creator for fillable PDF forms with field validation, and PDF Editor for annotation and conversion — all operating within a unified web interface. Format support spans 50+ types including DOCX, XLSX, PPTX, ODT, ODS, ODP, PDF, CSV, RTF, TXT, and Markdown with server-side conversion between any supported pair. The JavaScript plugin API enables extending editor functionality through a marketplace of ready-made plugins for ChatGPT integration, speech-to-text, OCR, Zotero citations, and Thesaurus. Ready-to-use connectors integrate with Nextcloud, ownCloud, Seafile, Moodle, Odoo, Confluence, SharePoint, Alfresco, Liferay, and Chamilo, while WOPI protocol compliance enables integration with any WOPI-compatible platform. JWT authentication secures all API communications between host applications and the document server. Deploy via Docker with a single command or DEB/RPM packages on Ubuntu, Debian, CentOS, or RHEL.

Alexandrie
Alexandrie provides a structured knowledge base with an extended Markdown editor, granular per-document permissions, and offline editing through its progressive web app. The CodeMirror 6 editor goes well beyond standard Markdown with colored containers, academic callout blocks, KaTeX math expressions, syntax-highlighted code blocks, footnotes, interactive checkboxes, cards, panels, and a custom snippet system with import and export. Full-text search via the Ctrl+K command center returns instant results with content snippets and relevance ranking across all workspaces. Five permission levels covering None, Read, Write, Admin, and Owner apply per document and per user, while OIDC single sign-on integrates with Google, GitHub, Microsoft, Discord, and any OpenID Connect provider. Documents organize into a hierarchical tree of workspaces, categories, and nested entries with tags, bookmarks, pinned notes, and custom icons. Integrated Kanban boards handle task management within each workspace without switching applications. The PWA installs on any device for full offline editing with seamless sync when connectivity returns. Voice-to-text dictation captures notes hands-free, and one-click ZIP backup exports all documents, files, and settings as a portable archive. Over 2,000 GitHub stars and 41 releases back the project. The Docker Compose stack orchestrates the Nuxt 4 frontend, Go Gin backend, MySQL 8 database, and S3-compatible RustFS object storage. Running on a VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. MIT licensed.
Suite Docs
An open-source alternative to Notion and Google Docs developed jointly by France's DINUM and Germany's ZenDiS that prioritizes data sovereignty, real-time collaboration, and structured knowledge management. The Yjs-powered CRDT engine provides live cursors, presence indicators, and inline comments enabling teams to edit simultaneously without conflicts, while BlockNote.js renders a clean block-based editing experience with rich text formatting, Markdown shortcuts, and drag-and-drop content organization. Hierarchical sub-documents create wiki-style knowledge bases where documentation nests naturally into navigable structures, and a dedicated slide mode transforms any document into a presentation without separate tooling. The document API separates content from metadata with distinct endpoints for formatted content, raw content streams, and document properties. Optional AI integration connects to configurable language models for writing assistance, summarization, and content generation directly within the editor. Access control supports granular permissions per document with team sharing, public links, and invitation flows. DOCX import brings existing documents into the platform while maintaining formatting fidelity. The Django backend serves a REST API with PostgreSQL storage, Redis caching, and S3-compatible media handling. Deploy via Docker Compose, Kubernetes with the official Helm chart, Nix, or YunoHost on your own infrastructure. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. MIT licensed.
37Studio
37Studio is a self-hosted AI video studio and social media desk that turns a short brief into on-brand videos, posts them to nine social platforms, and drafts replies to the messages that come back. Paste a company website and it builds a brand library of logos, photos, fonts, and colours, plus a knowledge base every later video and reply draws on. An editor agent builds each video as an animated composition, checks its own rendered frames, and takes revision requests in plain words. The same workflow yields hook reels, captioned clips, explainers, podcast clips, promo ads, and thumbnails, and any finished video can become a template. A two-hour recording becomes a shelf of short clips: transcription runs locally in about 100 languages at no cost, and YouTube or Drive links import directly. Publishing reaches Facebook Pages, Instagram, YouTube, TikTok, LinkedIn, X, Pinterest, Bluesky, and Mastodon in one action, now or scheduled, each with its own caption. Autopilot goes further: state a content plan in one sentence and a fresh video is made before every slot, waiting for one-click approval. Messenger, Instagram, and WhatsApp messages and social comments land in one inbox, with replies drafted in the customer's language under rules each brand sets. Exact AI spend shows on every project, and an MCP server lets your own AI tools run the studio. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. MIT licensed.
Nowen Note
Nowen Note is a self-hosted knowledge base where your notes, tasks, daily journals, and mind maps live in one private workspace you control. One tree holds folders, rich-text documents, and Markdown notes side by side, with drag-and-drop ordering, unlimited nesting, colored tags, pinning, and full-text search across everything. Each note can switch between a rich-text editor and Markdown with live preview, split view, outlines, tables, code blocks, math formulas, diagrams, comments, and version history. Connect the AI provider you prefer, such as an OpenAI-compatible API, Gemini, DeepSeek, or local Ollama, to continue drafts, rewrite passages, translate, summarize, and ask questions answered from your own notes. Tasks get list, board, calendar, and timeline views with dependencies, recurring rules, reminders, and templates, while daily journals capture short entries, moods, and photos and roll them into AI weekly and monthly reviews. Teammates edit together in real time, and folder-level permissions, passwords, allow and deny rules, share links with expiry dates, and guest comments decide exactly who sees what. Imports arrive from Obsidian, SiYuan, Word documents, web pages, and plain Markdown, attachments can live on local disk or S3-compatible storage, and scheduled backups travel to email or WebDAV. Keep working offline with a cached workspace that syncs when you reconnect, clip pages from the browser extension, and connect other tools through the OpenAPI, SDK, webhooks, and MCP server. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. GPL-3.0 licensed.
EdenText
EdenText is a full word processor, from quick notes to full-length books, that opens the docx and odt files you already have and keeps them looking the way Word or LibreOffice made them. Pages are real pages: A4 or Letter sizes, margins, headers and footers, footnotes, columns, and watermarks, with mirrored margins and chapters opening on the right-hand page when you are laying out a book. Paragraph, character, table, and list styles cascade with inheritance and chapter numbering, and tables sort rows and compute spreadsheet-style formulas. The academic toolbox is complete: table of contents, captions, cross-references, citations with bibliography, an alphabetical index, and LaTeX formulas. Reviewing works the way editors expect, with tracked changes, threaded comments in margin balloons, printable markup, spell checking in eight languages, and grammar checking for English. An optional AI assistant answers questions about the document and proposes edits as tracked changes through your own model provider. Nothing waits on a server: documents autosave in the browser, the app installs and works offline, and your words never leave the machine. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. AGPL-3.0 licensed.
Cryptpad
End-to-end encrypted by design, CryptPad is a real-time office suite where teams write documents, plan on kanban boards, collect answers with forms, and draw diagrams without the hosting server ever seeing their content. Rich text pages come with comments, replies, @mentions, and a document outline, while the Markdown editor adds a live preview, Mermaid diagrams, mind maps, and math. Kanban columns hold colored, tagged cards with Markdown bodies, and the diagram editor exports PNG, JPG, SVG, or PDF. Optional ONLYOFFICE editors add spreadsheets, word-processing documents, and presentations that several people can edit together. The form builder offers text, choice, grid, date, ranking, and poll questions, conditional sections, and separate author, auditor, and participant roles. Documents can be shared with contacts or teams, by link, or as embed code, with view, edit, present, or view-once access. Passwords, expiry dates, owner lists, and access lists limit who gets in, and every edit lands in a history you can step through, restore, or pin as a named snapshot. CryptDrive keeps files in folders, tags, templates, and a trash bin, while teams get their own drive, chat, and member roles. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. AGPL-3.0 licensed.
OpenPencil
OpenPencil is the open-source design editor that reads and writes native Figma .fig files using the same Kiwi binary format — enabling bidirectional copy-paste between Figma and OpenPencil without data loss. The built-in AI assistant provides 90+ design tools through a chat interface, creating and modifying shapes, fills, strokes, auto-layout, components, variables, and boolean operations from natural language prompts, with BYOK support for Anthropic, OpenAI, Google AI, OpenRouter, Z.ai, MiniMax, and compatible endpoints. A Skia CanvasKit WASM renderer paired with Yoga WASM layout engine delivers Figma-parity rendering with flex and CSS Grid support including gap, padding, and alignment. The headless CLI inspects node trees via XPath queries, lints naming and accessibility, converts between document formats, analyzes color and typography patterns, extracts design tokens, and exports to PNG, SVG, JSX/Tailwind, and HTML. An MCP server exposes all design operations over stdio and HTTP, connecting Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, and Gemini CLI for AI-assisted design automation. Real-time P2P collaboration via WebRTC with Yjs CRDT synchronization requires no server and no account. The Vue SDK provides headless components for embedding the editor into custom applications. Ships as a 7 MB Tauri v2 desktop app for macOS, Windows, and Linux, or runs in any browser as a PWA. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. MIT licensed.
