Hey All!

Been tinkering on a side project called Quickpoint. It’s a super lightweight, keyboard-first writing and sharing tool. Think of it like a notepad that instantly turns what you type into a shareable page- for notes, code demos, quick thoughts, or even presentations.

The goal is to stay in flow. no tabs, no formatting fluff, just type and share. I’m still very early (beta-ish stage), so I’d love feedback!

It’s Quickpoint.me

You don’t need to sign up. just hit the link and try it. Would really appreciate your thoughts, and happy to check out anything you’re building too.

Thanks! 🙏

    I’ve been thinking about a self-hosted option, but your framing helps prioritize why that matters beyond just checking a box. Also noted on the client-side encryption. It makes total sense in those scenarios.

    Would love to hear more about how you’d ideally deploy or manage a self-hosted version: Docker container? CLI? Something else?

      Nowadays I deploy most self hosted services as containers. If something is not available as such, I install it inside container and make a Dockerfile of it. Snap is useful too here (cf nextcloud). For some rust/go projects I just run the binary on the host directly as a systemd service. The corresponding update service pulls the release, builds it locally and restarts the service appropriately.

      Which means it totally depends on the project structure, scale and security administration which in turn depend on user. Somebody else might want something totally different but I would suggest go for container.
