What you can build with DumbPad
DumbPad is a deliberately minimal, self-hosted notepad application from DumbWare.io, built around the idea that quick shared text rarely needs accounts, databases, or any of the complexity that comes with full collaboration suites. Notepads are stored as plain files on disk, making backups a one-file copy and migrations trivial.
Multiple users can edit the same pad in real time, search across notepads with fuzzy matching, and preview markdown with GitHub-style alerts, tables, and syntax-highlighted code blocks. Optional 4-10 digit PIN protection secures access on shared servers, while Progressive Web App support lets you install DumbPad on any device for offline access. Self-hosting on a VPS keeps your notes private, available from every browser, and free from third-party service changes.
Key features of DumbPad
Real-time collaboration
Multiple users can edit the same notepad simultaneously with changes synchronized across every connected browser.
Markdown with previews
Render GitHub-style alert blocks, extended tables, syntax-highlighted code, and collapsible details directly inside the editor.
Fuzzy search
Find any notepad instantly by searching across both filenames and full file contents with forgiving fuzzy matching.
Optional PIN protection
Set a 4-10 digit PIN to restrict access on shared servers without forcing a full account or user-management system.
No database required
Notepads live as plain files on disk — backups are a one-file copy and migrations take seconds with no schema to worry about.

I'm incredibly happy with Hostinger's VPS hosting! Their uptime is consistently top-notch, keeping my site running smoothly. Whenever I've needed help, their technical support team has been quick, knowledgeable, and genuinely helpful.
Everything is smooth and great with Hostinger, the AI chat bot + human chat, if AI can't resolve your question. Oh and them VPS is just fire, no ups and downs. Thank you dev team and everyone else involved. Keep it up 🚀
Finally a VPS hosting company that does it right! Well-priced. Excellent portal that respects their users' time. Seamless backups. Good support. Reliable. Feels rock-solid.
I reached out to Hostinger support after losing access to my self-hosted n8n instance, and I couldn’t be more impressed. Kodee and Mohammad from the support team were incredibly patient and thorough.
Many thanks to Carla for helping me with this N8N upgrade on my Hostinger VPS. Professional and knowledgeable, thank you again Carla.
Hostinger VPS is absolutely outstanding. It just always works. It is always fast and stable. Never down, never crashes.
The company is doing well, I am very happy with the specific services I use through them. Not as expensive as some places with really great VPS set ups and price plans.
