*cowyo* is a self-contained wiki server that makes jotting notes easy and _fast_. The most important feature here is _simplicity_. Other features include versioning, page locking, self-destructing messages, encryption, and listifying. You can [download *cowyo* as a single executable](https://github.com/schollz/cowyo/releases/latest) or install it with Go. Try it out at https://cowyo.com.
There is now [a command-line tool, *cowyodel*](https://github.com/schollz/cowyodel) to interact with *cowyo* and transfer information between computers with only a code phrase: [schollz/cowyodel](https://github.com/schollz/cowyodel).
and it will start a server listening on `0.0.0.0:8050`. To view it, just go to http://localhost:8050 (the server prints out the local IP for your info if you want to do LAN networking). You can change the port with `-port X`, and you can listen *only* on localhost using `-host localhost`.
The `-lock` flag will automatically lock every page with the passphrase "123". Also, the default behavior will be to redirect `/` to `/index.html`. Also, every page that is published will automatically redirect to `/mypage/read` which will show the custom CSS file if it is supplied with `-css`.
When you open a document you'll be directed to an alliterative animal (which is supposed to be easy to remember). You can write in Markdown. Saving is performed as soon as you stop writing. You can easily link pages using [[PageName]] as you edit.
