What is Looksyk?

A simple personal knowledge platform with a focus on clean Markdown files, simple queries and a journal.

Key features:

  • Runs local on your computer, or in your self-hosted docker stack. Or both, with Git Sync.
  • Your information is always exclusively in the Markdown files. No replication in a database or similar. The files can be easily synchronized with other sync tools.
  • Based on blocks, but these can also be larger, contain entire chapters and multiple queries.
  • Get more out of your blocks. Add links and properties. Query them, or use them as cards on a board.
  • Simple, use case based query language.
  • Multiple instances of Looksyk with different knowledge bases can be opened in parallel.
  • Developer-centric file support:
  • Insert code blocks with syntax highlighting.
  • Save and display existing code files in your pages with syntax highlighting.
  • Save and display backups of websites in your pages (with single-file-downloader).
  • Insert videos, audio files, images, text files and PDFs.
  • Custom styling of markdown content with HTML and CSS and support for custom themes.
