Self hosted? #322

Hi,

This looks so awesome! I fell in love within seconds of trying it. It's just so cool, I can't believe I hadn't heard of this project yet. I have tried so so many note-taking systems, and this is definitely the coolest I've tried.

Can lumen be self-hosted, and use a private bare repo in my own machine?

Hi! I'm glad the project resonated with you 💖

Lumen doesn't currently support local file access but I'm open to contributions if you'd like to implement it. It should be possible if isomorphic-git can play nice with the File System API.

I'm also very surprised that I found such a cool app. 😳

The simplicity and variability of the knowledge base, you do not need to think long, just open and write a note.

This is exactly what you need: — Speed. I'm really surprised by the speed and ease. The same Logseq has microlags, it just pisses me off. — Tags — Templates — Daily notes — Back links — Queries — Metadata

What is missing: — The most important thing is local data storage, without synchronization with Github. And this app will automatically become my main note-taking app. ❤️ — Secondly, the ability to install on your own web server. (but this is secondary)

@colebemis It don't need to use filesystem access API for this feature. Surely it would be cool, but I think this issue is about hosting it on own webserver, and using different Git repo provider instead of Github.
