suitenumerique/docs

New open source (MIT licensed) collaborative text editing web application, similar to Google Docs or Notion, notable because it's a joint effort funded by the French and German governments and "currently onboarding the Netherlands".

It's built using Django and React:

Docs is built on top of Django Rest Framework, Next.js, BlockNote.js, HocusPocus and Yjs.

Deployments currently require Kubernetes, PostgreSQL, memcached, an S3 bucket (or compatible) and an OIDC provider.
