In more specific terms, it is a light-weight and fast content management system (CMS) where you write in Markdown with emphasis on reading.\n\n*rwtxt* builds off [cowyo](https://cowyo.com), a similar app I made previously. In improving with *rwtxt* I aimed to avoid [second-system syndrome](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second-system_effect): I got rid of features I never used in cowyo (self-destruction, encryption, locking), while integrating a useful new feature not available previously: you can create  *domains*. A *domain* is basically a personalized namespace where you can write private/public posts that are searchable. I personally use *rwtxt* to collect and jot notes for work, personal, coding - each which has its own searchable and indexed domain.\n\n*rwtxt* is backed by a single [sqlite3](https://www.sqlite.org/index.html) database, so it's portable and very easy to backup. It's written in Go and all the assets are bundled so you can just download a single binary and start writing. You can also try the online version: [rwtxt.com](https://rwtxt.com/public).\n\n## Usage\n\n**Reading.** You can share *rwtxt* links to read them on another computer. *rwtxt* is organized in *domains* - places where you can privately or publicly store your text. If the *domain* is private, you must be signed in to read, even you have the permalink.\n\nYou can easily [create your own domain](https://rwtxt.com/public) in 10 seconds. When you make a new domain it will be private by default, so only you can view/search/edit your own text.\n\nOnce you make a domain you will see an option to make your domain *public* so that anyone can view/search it. However, only people with the domain password can edit in your domain - making *rwtxt* useful as a password-protected wiki. (The one exception is the [`/public`](https://rwtxt.com/public) domain, which anyone can edit/view - making *rwtxt* useful as a pastebin).\n\n\n**Writing.** To write in *rwtxt*, just create a new page and click \"Edit\", or goto a URL for the thing you want to write about - like [rwtxt.com/public/write-something](https://rwtxt.com/public/write-something). When you write in *rwtxt* you can format your text in [Markdown](https://guides.github.com/features/mastering-markdown/).\n\nIn addition, writing triple backtick code blocks:\n\n\n    ```javascript\n    console.log(\"hello, world\");\n    ```\n\nproduces code highlighted with [prism.js](https://prismjs.com/):\n\n```javascript\nconsole.log(\"hello, world\");\n```\n\n**Deleting.** You can easily delete your page. Just erase all the content from it and it will disappear forever within 10 seconds.\n\n## Install\n\nYou can easily install and run *rwtxt* on your own computer.\n\nYou can download a binary for the [latest release](https://github.com/schollz/rwtxt/releases/latest).\n\nOr you can install from source. First, make sure to [install Go](https://golang.org/dl/). Then clone the repo:\n\n\n```bash\n$ git clone https://github.com/schollz/rwtxt.git\n```\n\nThen you can make it with:\n\n```bash\n$ make\n```\n\nAnd then run it!\n\n```bash\n$ export PATH=\"${PATH}:${GOPATH}/bin\"\n$ rwtxt\n```\n\n### Docker\n\nYou can also easily install and run with Docker. \n\n```\n$ docker pull schollz/rwtxt\n```\n\nThen run by using docker\n\n```\n$ docker run -v /place/to/store/data:/data -p 8000:8152 schollz/rwtxt\n```\n\nIn this case `-p 8000:8152` will have rwtxt will be running on port 8000.\n\n## Notice\n\nBy using [rwtxt.com](https://rwtxt.com) you agree to the [terms of service](https://rwtxt.com/rwtxt/terms-of-service).\n\n## License\n\nMIT\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fschollz%2Frwtxt","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fschollz%2Frwtxt","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fschollz%2Frwtxt/lists"}
