AwwKoala

A Websocket Wiki and Kind Of A List Application

Version 0.93

This is a self-contained wiki webserver that makes sharing easy and fast. You can make any page you want, and any page is editable by anyone. Pages load instantly for editing, and have special rendering for whether you want to view as a web page or view as list. AwwKoala is also Open Source.

Features

Simplicity. The philosophy here is to just type. To jot a note, simply load the page at / and just start typing. No need to press edit, the browser will already be focused on the text. No need to press save - it will automatically save when you stop writing. The URL at / will redirect to an easy-to-remember name that you can use to reload the page at anytime, anywhere. But, you can also use any URL you want, e.g. /AnythingYouWant.

Viewing. All pages can be rendered into HTML by adding /view. For example, the page /AnythingYouWant is rendered at /AnythingYouWant/view. You can write in HTML or Markdown for page rendering. To quickly link to /view pages, just use [[AnythingYouWnat]]. Math is supported with Katex using $\frac{1}{2}$ for inline equations and $$\frac{1}{2}$$ for regular equations.

Simply type to edit.

Listifying. If you are writing a list and you want to tick off things really easily, just add /list. For example, after editing /grocery, goto /grocery/list. In this page, whatever you click on will be struck through and moved to the end. This is helpful if you write a grocery list and then want to easily delete things from it.

Lists are easy to make.

Automatic versioning. All previous versions of all notes are stored and can be accessed by adding ?version=X onto /view or /edit. If you are on the /view or /edit pages the menu below will show the most substantial changes in the history. Note, only the current version can be edited (no branching allowed, yet).

Versioning is easy.

Self-destructing messages. You can write a message that will delete itself when a user loads it (in any view). Useful for transmitting sensitive information. To use, simply add a line somewhere that says only "self-destruct".

Simply type to edit.

Security. HTTPS support is provided and everything is sanitized to prevent XSS attacks. Though all URLs are publicly accessible, you are free to obfuscate your website by using an obscure/random address (read: the site is still publicly accessible, just hard to find!). In addition to TLS support, you can PGP-encrypt your messages using a passphrase.

Simply type to edit.

Keyboard Shortcuts. Quickly transition between Edit/View/List by using Ctl+Shift+E to Edit, Ctl+Shift+Z to View, and Ctl+Shift+L to Listify.
