Hi,

over the last six months I have been building PdfDing. You can find it on github.

PdfDing is a selfhosted PDF manager, viewer and editor offering a seamless user experience on multiple devices. Some of its features include:

  • Remembers current position - continue where you stopped reading on any device
  • Edit PDFs by adding annotations, highlighting and drawings
  • Share PDFs with an external audience via a link or a QR Code. Shared PDFs can be access controlled
  • Dark Mode, colored themes and custom theme colors
  • Inverted color mode for reading PDFs
  • SSO support via OIDC
  • Markdown Notes

The project is built using Django, Alpine JS, htmx, Tailwind CSS and Mozilla's pdf.js.

If you like PdfDing please consider giving the project a star on github. If anyone wants to contribute you are welcome to do so!

What's wrong with insert programming language you personally dislike?

[–] eager_eagle@lemmy.world 10 points 2 days ago (1 children)

The problem is that it's not insert my language of choice.

The cool kids all use C++. If you use Python, you're not a "real" programmer.
