CryptPad updated to 4.0

 Are you using CryptPad? CryptPad is an encryped open source alternative for Google Docs. If you are concerned about privacy of your documents you should consider using CryptPad. It is a good online suite for creating documents, spreadsheets, presentations, and all of the documents will be encrypted. Note that it is browser based however they say the encryption happens on the client side and is not on the cloud based server side.

Also note that the free service gives you 50MB of storage (CryptDrive). If you register, they bump you to 1GB personal storage. If you need more storage you can move to the paid plan.

Here's the part I like. You can choose to self-host. Find the instructions for this on the GitHub page.

CryptPad offers these features:

  • Offers Rich Text editor for document creation/editing
  • Offers the ability to create and manage Spreadsheet
  • Provides a separate code editor with color scheme
  • Ability to create a presentation
  • Easily create a private or public poll
  • Offers a Kanban board editor
  • Provides a whiteboard to take notes or anything you’d need
  • Password protection for your files/documents
  • Self-destruction functionality for your documents
  • Ability to make the document public using link sharing or keep it restricted
  • Control the permissions of your document before sharing it to someone
  • Easily embed the pad anywhere using iframe snippet
  • Collaboration options to chat/edit documents
  • Client-side encryption (Server does not know the contents of your documents)
