# AwwKoala
## A Websocket Wiki and Kind Of A List Application
![Version 0.93](https://img.shields.io/badge/version-0.92-brightgreen.svg)
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](https://github.com/schollz/AwwKoala).
## Features
**Simplicity**. The philosophy here is to *just type*. To jot a note, simply load the page at [`/`](http://AwwKoala.com/) 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 [`/`](http://AwwKoala.com/) 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`](http://AwwKoala.com/AnythingYouWant).
**Viewing**. All pages can be rendered into HTML by adding `/view`. For example, the page [`/AnythingYouWant`](http://AwwKoala.com/AnythingYouWant) is rendered at [`/AnythingYouWant/view`](http://AwwKoala.com/AnythingYouWant/view). You can write in HTML or [Markdown](https://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/) for page rendering. To quickly link to `/view` pages, just use `[[AnythingYouWnat]]`. Math is supported with [Katex](https://github.com/Khan/KaTeX) using `$\frac{1}{2}$` for inline equations and `$$\frac{1}{2}$$` for regular equations.

**Listifying**. If you are writing a list and you want to tick off things really easily, just add `/list`. For example, after editing [`/grocery`](http://AwwKoala.com/grocery), goto [`/grocery/list`](http://AwwKoala.com/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.](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/schollz/awwkoala/master/static/img/Main3.gif)
**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.](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/schollz/awwkoala/master/static/img/Main2.gif)
**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`".

**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.](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/schollz/awwkoala/master/static/img/Main7.gif)
**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.
