Hello everyone!

First of all, thanks a lot for the amazing response and interest in Journiv. We have hundreds of stars, thousands of docker pull and many many feature request (and bugs reports) on Github in just two weeks (sleepless two weeks for me :)).

Journiv v0.1.0-beta.8 is out and in it I have added the most requested features.

Highlights:

  • OIDC support (now pretty stable)
  • In app one click export-import with history. So you always have your memories safe and backed up even if you don’t want to deal with docker backups
  • Role Based Access Control for user management.
  • Many quality of life features and bug fixes.

Journiv began as a deeply personal project, a way for me to capture memories, reflections, and the stories behind thousands of photos and videos of my fast-growing kids. What started as a tool for my own parenting journey has grown into something that fills a real gap in the self-hosting community.

If you’re curious, you can read the full story behind Journiv here.

I’m grateful that Journiv is now helping others preserve their memories as well.

The Journey Ahead

Journiv is in active development, with a fully functional backend, a web frontend, and mobile apps launching soon. It is self-hosted, and designed to be your companion for decades.

Journiv is being built because our memories deserve to be ours, forever.

So this Thanksgiving, give your family the gift of memories that last forever!

This is awesome! I’ve been meaning to journal for a couple years now, but didn’t know the medium to do it in, I think this is the push I needed

Thank you. It is never too late and now you have all your journal entries to yourself forever :)
