Self-host the SiYuan note-taking app in one click via Coolify, with full root access and locations in Europe and America.
American ExpressSelf-hosted SiYuan Note
SiYuan Note turns scattered notes into a connected knowledge base. You write in blocks, reference any paragraph from any page and turn notes into flashcards for spaced repetition, all in a privacy-first, open-source app. Self-hosted on your own VPS, the workspace stays on a server you control and opens in any browser. You deploy it in one click from the Coolify app marketplace instead of writing a Docker Compose file by hand.
Full root access means the server is yours. Put SiYuan behind your own domain with HTTPS, set an access code, close every port you don't need and run other self-hosted tools next to it through Coolify or plain Docker. You decide where your notes live, who can reach them and when to update, instead of handing your knowledge base to a SaaS cloud.

SiYuan features
Find any block in seconds, pull live task lists into pages with SQL queries and export to Markdown, all in a browser workspace behind your own access code.
Open the same workspace on laptop, tablet or phone without installing anything.
Locate a single paragraph across thousands of notes with built-in full-text search.
Keep live lists of open tasks or tagged blocks inside any page via SQL.
Take your notes anywhere as Markdown, PDF or Word files.
Keep screenshots, PDFs and attachments right next to the notes they belong to.
Only people with your access code get in, backed by HTTPS and your firewall.

Inside SiYuan
SiYuan connects your notes at block level: link any paragraph to any other, find it again in seconds and keep the whole knowledge base local-first and private.

Block editor
Every paragraph, heading, list or image is its own block. You can drag blocks around, nest them and use block-level actions on hover, so restructuring a long document takes seconds instead of copy-and-paste sessions.

FAQ
Answers to the most important questions before you start.
Order a VPS, open the Apps tab in the ZapX panel and pick SiYuan from the Coolify app marketplace. Coolify pulls the official container and starts it, so SiYuan is online within minutes. You don't have to write a Docker Compose file or configure the container by hand. Read the one-click apps guide
Your self-hosted server gives you SiYuan in the browser, on desktop and mobile alike. The native desktop and mobile apps sync through SiYuan's own sync options, and SiYuan sets their requirements. Check the official SiYuan documentation for the current details before you plan your setup.
SiYuan runs as a single container, so a smaller plan is a good start for a personal workspace. RAM and storage needs grow with your assets, PDFs and the number of people using the workspace. Start small and upgrade as your workspace grows. All plan specs are shown live in the pricing section.
SiYuan is open source, so you only pay for the VPS it runs on. Current prices for every plan load live in the pricing section on this page, and you choose the term that suits you when you order.
Set a strong access authorization code so the web interface asks for it before anyone gets in. Then connect your own domain with HTTPS through Coolify and use the firewall to allow only the traffic you need. With root access, you decide who can reach the server. Learn how to manage the firewall
Yes. Point an A record at the IP of your VPS, add the domain to the SiYuan app in Coolify and redeploy. Coolify then requests an HTTPS certificate, so your workspace opens under your own address. Set up your DNS records
Yes. Every VPS gets a daily automatic Backup from the platform, included without a ZapX Pass. With the ZapX Pass, you can view and restore these daily Backups, create manual Backups and snapshots, and manage your Backup slots and storage. SiYuan's own data snapshots and Markdown export add another layer.
ZAP-Hosting has locations in Europe and America, so you can pick the one closest to you or to whoever uses your workspace. Many US users start with Ashburn, Dallas or Los Angeles.
Yes, you can cancel your VPS anytime. The cancellation takes effect at the end of your current term, and you choose that term yourself when you order.
The easiest way is a VPS with the Coolify app marketplace: you deploy SiYuan in one click, with no manual Docker setup, and you keep full root access. How much RAM you need depends on your workspace. A personal workspace fits a smaller plan, and you move up when assets, PDFs or users grow. All plan specs are listed live in the pricing section.
