Hoodik

End-to-end encrypted cloud storage server. Files are encrypted and decrypted in the browser, so the server only ever holds ciphertext. Runs on SQLite or PostgreSQL, stores chunks on local disk or any S3-compatible service.

How to self-host Hoodik

Hoodik runs on Docker. The project's own install guide is the place to start; most people put it on a small server with Docker and a reverse proxy for HTTPS.

  1. Get a server: a home server, a VPS, or a managed app host.
  2. Install it the way the project's docs describe, usually with Docker Compose.
  3. Put it behind HTTPS and set up backups before you add real data.
  4. Update it regularly. Watch the project's releases.
