TriliumNext Notes

TriliumNext Notes is a sophisticated, self-hosted personal knowledge management system designed for individuals who want complete control over their notes, documentation, and information architecture. As the community-driven successor to the original Trilium project, TriliumNext continues the vision of providing a flexible, powerful, and extensible note-taking platform that combines the simplicity of hierarchical organization with advanced features like scripting, custom widgets, and API integration. With its rich WYSIWYG editor, markdown support, and tree-based navigation, TriliumNext transforms note-taking from a simple text capture tool into a comprehensive personal knowledge base that grows with your needs. The application processes everything locally with optional synchronization, ensuring your data remains private and under your control.

Common Use Cases

Knowledge Workers & Researchers: Build comprehensive personal wikis with interconnected notes, research documentation, and reference materials organized in hierarchical trees. Use note cloning to have the same content appear in multiple contexts, attributes for metadata and relationships, and version history to track how your understanding evolves over time. Developers & Technical Writers: Store code snippets with syntax highlighting, API documentation, technical notes, and troubleshooting guides. Create executable scripts within notes to automate tasks, generate dynamic content, or integrate with external systems. Use the REST API to programmatically create, update, and query notes from external tools. Project Managers & Organizers: Manage projects with hierarchical task breakdowns, meeting notes, and day-notes for daily tracking. Use custom attributes and templates to standardize project documentation, while bookmarks provide quick access to frequently referenced information. Personal Knowledge Management: Journal daily thoughts, track habits like weight and exercise, capture web content with the browser extension, and organize personal information. Protect sensitive notes with password encryption and use themes to customize the interface to your preferences.

Why deploy TriliumNext Notes on Hostinger VPS

Deploying TriliumNext Notes on Hostinger VPS gives you complete ownership and control over your personal knowledge base without the limitations, privacy concerns, or subscription costs of cloud note-taking services. With dedicated VPS resources, TriliumNext can handle large knowledge bases with thousands of notes, complex hierarchies, and extensive search operations without performance degradation. You maintain absolute privacy over your notes, research, and personal information—everything stays on your infrastructure with no third-party access or data mining. The persistent volume ensures your notes, revisions, and attachments are safely stored with regular backup capabilities. Self-hosting enables unlimited notes, storage, and API usage without tiered pricing or feature restrictions imposed by SaaS alternatives. For researchers, developers, and knowledge workers who accumulate years of notes, documentation, and reference materials, Hostinger VPS provides the reliability and performance needed for a mission-critical knowledge management system. The REST API integration allows you to build custom workflows, automate note creation, and connect TriliumNext to your existing tools and processes. With optional synchronization, you can run multiple TriliumNext instances and keep them in sync, or provide access to team members while maintaining control over your infrastructure. For individuals serious about long-term knowledge management, self-hosted TriliumNext on VPS delivers the performance, privacy, and permanence that cloud services cannot guarantee.
