Your notes and checklists, hosted in France
A notes and lists application powered by Jotty, installed and maintained by DINAO. Your notes, tasks, and projects stay on our French servers — in Markdown files that you control.
What is Jotty?
Jotty is a self-hosted, free, and open-source application for managing your personal notes and checklists. It is lightweight yet surprisingly comprehensive. Its philosophy is clear: your data belongs to you and remains under your control, stored as simple Markdown and JSON files in a single directory — with no database.
Regarding features, Jotty offers checklists with drag-and-drop, progress bars, and categories, as well as advanced task projects with Kanban boards and time tracking. The WYSIWYG editor provides full Markdown rendering with syntax highlighting, and PGP encryption secures your sensitive content.
Designed for team use as well, Jotty includes an admin panel to manage accounts and session tracking, an authenticated REST API for programmatic access to your notes, and integrates with Authentik, Keycloak, Auth0, and other OIDC providers for single sign-on. Built on Next.js, it deploys easily and keeps all your data portable.

You might be wondering…
Are my notes locked into a proprietary format?
No. Jotty stores everything in simple Markdown and JSON files within a data directory. Your notes remain readable, portable, and exportable without any lock-in.
Does Jotty require a database?
No. That's one of its strengths: no DBMS to administer. Everything is stored in files, which simplifies backups and ensures data portability.

On the DINAO infrastructure in France, in one of the available data centers. Your notes and lists never leave the country.
Can I connect Jotty to my corporate SSO?
Yes. Jotty integrates with Authentik, Keycloak, Auth0, and other OIDC providers for single sign-on. An authenticated REST API is also available.
Can I change plans or export my data?
