CRM mechanics applied to your actual relationships instead of a sales pipeline: Nametag is a Personal Relationship Manager (PRM). It exists to fix the things you keep forgetting: when you last talked to an old friend, their kids' names, the birthday you missed twice. Contacts are tracked with flexible attributes - names, birthdays, important dates, and free-form notes for everything else - and organized into custom groups. Where it goes beyond a contacts app is relationship mapping: you define how people connect to each other (family, friends, colleagues, or custom relationship types), and an interactive D3.js-powered graph renders your entire personal network so you can see clusters and connections at a glance. Staying in touch is automated: scheduled reminders fire for birthdays, important dates, and reach-out nudges, with optional email delivery via a Resend API key for password resets and reminder notifications. Built with Next.js, it is mobile-responsive, ships with full dark mode, and supports multiple languages including English and Spanish. Because it is self-hosted, there are no account tiers or contact limits - unlimited people and relationships, with every note about your personal life stored on your own server rather than a social-graph company's cloud. A lightweight, single-container deployment makes it one of the easiest personal tools to run.

Your medical history, fragmented across a dozen patient portals, in one place on your server: MediKeep (formerly Personal Medical Records Keeper) is a self-hosted health record system. Built with a React frontend and FastAPI backend over PostgreSQL, it organizes 14 categories of medical data - medications with dosages and schedules, conditions, procedures, allergies, immunizations, symptoms, injuries, doctor visits and encounters, treatments, lab results, and even medical equipment with service dates and supplier info. Treatment management is genuinely sophisticated: an advanced mode links treatments to their medications with per-medication overrides for prescriber, pharmacy, and effective dates, and reverse lookup shows which treatments use a given medication. A dashboard summarizes records and recent activity, file uploads attach documents to records, and tagging works across categories. When a new specialist asks for your history, the report builder assembles custom reports by category and exports to PDF, JSON, or CSV - a curated, portable summary instead of a folder of photocopies. Authentication supports Google and GitHub SSO with OIDC providers like Keycloak and Authelia expected to work, and the built-in backup system protects the archive. Health data is exactly what should never live in someone else's cloud.

With over 1,200 GitHub stars, 12,000+ commits, and more than a decade of active development distributed under the AGPL-3.0 license, Cozy Cloud operates as a comprehensive personal data hub that goes far beyond file storage by connecting your documents, contacts, calendars, banking transactions, energy bills, and productivity tools into a single self-hosted platform where no third party profiles you. The cozy-stack Go binary handles file storage, CouchDB document management, job scheduling, app serving, and the REST API in a single process consuming approximately 150MB of RAM idle. Sandboxed konnectors import data from 50+ external services — banks, utility providers, telecom operators, cloud drives — running as isolated jobs via nsjail to prevent untrusted code from accessing other user data. The built-in app store serves web applications in subdomain-isolated environments with Content Security Policy headers, each app communicating exclusively through the documented REST API. Real-time synchronization via PouchDB replication and WebSocket keeps files, contacts, and documents consistent across desktop clients, mobile apps for iOS and Android with automatic photo backup, and the web interface. Security features include automatic Let's Encrypt TLS certificates, Argon2id password hashing, optional TOTP two-factor authentication, and GDPR-compliant data export via the CLI. Each user receives their own isolated instance with independent storage, database, and application configuration. 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.

Started as an ExpenseOwl-inspired project, Wally grew into a lightweight, self-hosted expense tracker more capable in every direction its author touched. The backend is Python FastAPI over SQLite, which means every deployment ships a full REST API with interactive documentation at /api/docs - automating imports or wiring in external tools requires no reverse engineering, and when the optional login page is enabled you can mint scoped API keys from the Settings page for token-based integrations. The transactions view is built on AG Grid, bringing real search, column sorting, and per-column filtering to your ledger, with a footer totaling rows, income, and expenses for whatever slice you have filtered. Dashboards go beyond the usual monthly doughnut: a Change button swaps in year-scale line graphs so you can track a single category - restaurants, say - across time. Recurring transactions edit intelligently, letting you apply changes to all instances or only future ones. CSV import and export use a simple six-column format handled from Settings, the refined dark theme is genuinely easy on the eyes, and the interface is translated into more than ten languages. The whole thing runs from one small container with a single data volume.

Track income, recurring expenses, and multi-currency assets with WYGIWYH, a self-hosted personal finance platform built on a strict cash-flow principle that preserves monthly savings while exposing spending patterns. Users can aggregate holdings across checking accounts, physical cash reserves, crypto wallets, and custom asset models with automatic foreign exchange rate calculations. The transaction engine executes automated adjustment rules to normalize merchant names, apply category tags, and calculate split costs on every purchase. Investors can schedule dollar-cost averaging portfolios to monitor accumulation performance and price averages over extended investment horizons. Interactive dashboards provide monthly breakdown grids, calendar views of pending recurring bills, and multi-year net worth trajectories. Financial analysts can export transaction journals to CSV, automate data synchronization through REST webhooks, or query accounts with AI agents via the Model Context Protocol. Customizable notification triggers alert account owners to payment due dates and anomalous spending spikes across monitored accounts. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. GNU AGPL v3.0 licensed.

PayMe is a privacy-first personal finance dashboard that runs entirely on your own hardware with zero third-party service dependencies. The Rust backend compiled to a single binary serves a React 19 frontend built with Vite, TypeScript, and Tailwind CSS 4, storing all financial data in a local SQLite database that auto-migrates on startup. Monthly dashboards track income entries, fixed expenses like mortgage and utilities, and budget categories with real-time progress bars showing spending against configurable limits. The savings module includes goal tracking with percentage-based progress indicators, custom savings goals for targeted objectives, retirement savings projections with breakdown analysis, and projected savings calculations. Variance analysis compares actual spending against budgets across categories. Drag-and-drop reordering powered by dnd-kit lets you arrange income sources, expenses, and budget items to match your workflow. The interactive charts rendered by Recharts visualize spending trends, income patterns, and savings trajectories. Month-by-month navigation tracks financial history over time, while the Summary and Stats views aggregate data across periods. JWT-based authentication secures access, and the full OpenAPI Swagger documentation at the /swagger-ui endpoint exposes every API route for automation and integration. Docker Compose deployment creates a minimal image with the compiled Rust binary and static frontend assets, running on port 3001 behind nginx, Caddy, or Traefik reverse proxy with HTTPS. On RepoCloud, deploy PayMe on a dedicated VPS with persistent SQLite storage, root SSH access, and complete privacy over your household financial data, all under the MIT license.

PenX delivers an open-source structured note-taking application that functions as a personal database disguised as an elegant editor — combining the outline workflow of Workflowy and Roam Research with the structured data capabilities of Tana through MetaTags that transform every note into a queryable database record. The local-first architecture stores all data on-device using PGLite, an in-process PostgreSQL-compatible engine, ensuring data ownership regardless of cloud connectivity. End-to-end encryption protects all synchronized data so that even the sync server cannot read your notes, tasks, ideas, or documents. GitHub-based version control provides out-of-the-box backup and history with full commit-level recovery. MetaTags are the core innovation — attaching structured tags to any note converts it into a database entry with typed fields, enabling table views, filters, and queries across your knowledge base without imposing rigid folder hierarchies. The daily notes workflow encourages free-form capture while MetaTags handle organization automatically, letting you record thoughts without deciding physical location upfront. AI-driven features assist with content generation, summarization, and intelligent search across your personal data hub. Real-time sync keeps web, desktop, and mobile in perfect alignment. Cross-platform availability includes web, desktop for Windows, macOS, and Linux, iOS, and Chrome extension. Deploy the web service via Next.js with pnpm using tRPC and Prisma. 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.

100% portability is Nanote's one non-negotiable principle as a self-hosted note-taking app. There is no database - notebooks are plain folders and notes are plain Markdown files on your filesystem, so the same notes remain fully manageable from a terminal, Notepad, or any other editor, and walking away from Nanote costs nothing because your data was never in a proprietary format to begin with. Built with Nuxt and TypeScript around the Milkdown editor, it layers modern conveniences on that plain-file foundation: fast content search across all notes using OS-optimized tooling (ugrep), native Markdown rendering, image and file attachments, and a mobile-friendly layout for reading and editing on a phone. Clever remark directives make plain text interactive - typing ::file inserts an inline upload picker, while ::today, ::now, and ::tomorrow expand to live dates and times. A fully typed REST API with validation covers automation, and access is protected by a configurable secret key. Deployment is one container with three env vars: paths for notes, uploads, and config, all bind-mountable so your Markdown lives wherever you want it - including inside an existing sync setup. AGPL-licensed and actively daily-driven by its author.

"Somewhat lightweight, low-friction" is how Silicon Notes' author describes the personal knowledge base - written after DokuWiki's editor "drove me mad" and no existing wiki quite fit. The philosophy is that small frequent annoyances compound into cognitive load with no return, so everything here is optimized for frictionless daily use. Notes are written in plaintext Markdown and rendered as clean HTML with Pygments syntax highlighting for code blocks; pages get bi-directional relationships (backlinks), so the knowledge base becomes a connected web rather than a folder tree; and full-text plus title search retrieves anything fast. A table of contents lives in the left sidebar - "where it belongs" - editable while you read without scrolling away. Page history tracks revisions for auditing and rollback, JSON export/import keeps everything portable, and the mobile layout is genuinely usable. The stack is deliberately minimal: Python and Flask with Mistune for Markdown and SQLite for storage - no big frameworks, just a few small dependencies. One honest caveat: there is no built-in authentication, so deploy it behind a VPN, private network, or reverse-proxy auth layer. For a solo engineer's brain, it is exactly enough.
