Your own Trilium Notes sync server: one-click Coolify deploy, full root access and a VPS that's online in 60 seconds.
American ExpressWhat is TriliumNext?
TriliumNext turns scattered notes into one searchable knowledge base. You file ideas, meeting notes, code snippets and journal entries in a tree as deep as you need, link notes to each other and find anything again with full-text search. With TriliumNext hosting on your own VPS, that knowledge base lives on a server you control, and your desktop app, browser and phone all reach the same notes.
Instead of a managed instance with limited access, you get full root access. Deploy TriliumNext with one click from the Coolify app marketplace, with no Docker Compose file to write, then use SSH whenever you want to tweak the container, copy your SQLite database or run more apps like BookStack next to your notes. Hosting Trilium Notes this way means you decide where your data sits and when you update.

Features
Sync across all your devices, instant full-text search and scripts that automate your notebook, all in your own TriliumNext instance.
Recurring notes and chores run on their own thanks to built-in JavaScript scripts.
Desktop app, browser and phone always open the same notes, synced through your VPS.
Find any note in seconds, even across thousands of entries.
Sketch ideas, mind maps and system diagrams right inside your notebook.
Bring your existing notes along from Markdown, HTML or Evernote exports.
Private entries stay private with a password login and encrypted protected notes.

FAQ
Answers to the most important questions before you start.
Order a VPS, open the app installer in the ZapX panel and pick TriliumNext. Coolify deploys it with one click, so there's no Docker Compose file to write. Your VPS is online in 60 seconds; the TriliumNext deploy runs as a separate step afterwards and takes a little extra time. You keep full root access via SSH for anything beyond the defaults.

VPS Apps need at least 2 GB RAM, 2 CPU cores and 30 GB storage, the platform minimum for Coolify and its apps. TriliumNext keeps all notes in one SQLite database and runs light, so that minimum covers a personal notebook. Needs grow with a larger note database, many attachments and more synced devices or other apps on the same VPS. You can upgrade the package later.
Yes. Your instance on the VPS works as the sync server. In the desktop app you enter the server address and your password, and notes sync both ways. The web UI runs in any browser, and on your phone you open the mobile web view of the same instance.
With your own instance, the SQLite database sits on your VPS at the location you choose. You pay one fixed VPS price and can run more apps on the same server, while a hosted service bills per hosted instance. You handle updates and operation yourself, with root access to change anything. A hosted service runs the instance for you. Pick what fits how hands-on you want to be.
Open the installed app in the ZapX panel, check for updates and apply an available update with one click. As a manual alternative, you can redeploy the instance in Coolify yourself. Before big version jumps, read TriliumNext's official upgrade notes. With the ZapX Pass you can create your own Backup before updating and restore it if needed.
Yes. A subdomain is optional and managed by ZapX: a platform domain or your own domain in your ZAP account whose DNS ZapX can manage. ZapX creates the DNS records during installation, so you don't have to set any A or CNAME records yourself, and Coolify issues the HTTPS certificate automatically via Let's Encrypt. Without a managed subdomain, TriliumNext runs on a default URL (http://<service>.<ip>.sslip.io) over HTTP without a certificate.
A daily automatic Backup of your VPS is included. With the ZapX Pass you see those daily Backups and restore earlier versions yourself, create your own manual Backups and take snapshots. TriliumNext also keeps its own database Backups and lets you export notes inside the app. Read more about VPS Backups
Your VPS is online in 60 seconds after ordering. Deploying TriliumNext through Coolify is a separate step afterwards and takes a little extra time. Moving existing notes over adds time depending on the size of your notebook.
Locations in Europe and America: FFM/Eygelshoven, Ashburn, Dallas and Los Angeles. Choose the one closest to you and the devices that sync most often. In North America, many users start with Ashburn, Dallas or Los Angeles.
Yes. Export your notes from the old installation and import them into the new instance, or connect your existing desktop app to the new server as its sync target so your notes upload during the first sync. TriliumNext also imports Markdown, HTML and Evernote ENEX files.
Yes, cancel anytime. Terms run 3, 30, 90, 180 or 365 days, and a cancellation takes effect at the end of the current term. A longer term lowers the monthly price. TriliumNext itself is open source and costs nothing extra; you only pay for the VPS. How cancellation works
