A personal canvas you own outright.

Link-in-bio, a small site, a notebook, a blog. Rendered from plain markdown on your own server. No database lock-in. No rent.

$git clone https://github.com/Gt-ace/Amber.git$cd Amber$docker compose up

Then open localhost:3000.

Open source · AGPL-3.0 · self-hostable.

The bet

The web rents you space and keeps your work.

Amber is the opposite bet. Markdown on your own disk, hand-editable config, AGPL. You can leave anytime, because the files were always yours.

Themes

One space. Any look.

A theme is just CSS and HTML. Switch the whole look without touching a word of your content.

The editor

Write without a terminal.

A WYSIWYG editor writes plain markdown to disk for you. What you type is what gets saved: portable, yours, forever.

A quiet place for the things I make.
