Selfhosted PDF manager, viewer and editor offering a seamless user experience on multiple devices. - mrmn2/PdfDing

Hi /c/opensource,

I am developing PdfDing - a selfhosted PDF manager, viewer and editor. You can find the repo here.

Today I reached a big milestone as PdfDing reached over 600 stars on github. A good portion of these stars probably comes from being included in the favorite selfhosted apps launched in 2024 on selfh.st.

Here is a quick overview over the project’s features:

  • Seamless browser based PDF viewing on multiple devices. Remembers current position - continue where you stopped reading
  • Stay on top of your PDF collection with multi-level tagging, starring and archiving functionalities
  • Edit PDFs by adding annotations, highlighting and drawings
  • Clean, intuitive UI with dark mode, inverted color mode and custom theme colors
  • SSO support via OIDC
  • Share PDFs with an external audience via a link or a QR Code with optional access control
  • Markdown Notes
  • Progress bars show the reading progress of each PDF at a quick glance

As always I am happy if you star the repo or if someone wants to contribute.

    1. Ah ok. I reread the information on the github readme and it said that “files will be deleted after 60 minutes”. So I thought I could try uploading.
    2. Yes. LibreWolf which is FireFox based. I do suggest using the download attribute though. People don’t like changing settings for specific applications.
    3. Coolio. Glad you are happy with the feedback.
