HedgeDoc
HedgeDoc lets you create real-time collaborative markdown notes. You can test-drive it by visiting our HedgeDoc demo server.
It is inspired by Hackpad, Etherpad and similar collaborative editors. This project originated with the team at HackMD and now forked into its own organisation. A longer writeup can be read in the history doc.

Installation / Upgrading
You can run HedgeDoc in a number of ways, and we created setup instructions for all of these:
