  Kind of offtopic: Can we call something offline if you need a server to run it?

  Sure, you could run it on your own PC and that’s it, but I don’t think that method fit well with this community

  Er… maybe I am misunderstanding your post but this community is literally built around hosting your own local infrastructure.

    this community is literally built around hosting your own local infrastructure.

    That’s part of it, but using a dedicated server, colocated server, or VPS are also considered “self hosted” too. Generally, “self hosted” means any server, web service, etc where you maintain it yourself.

  Offline as in, the server software doesn’t require the internet.

  Yes, you absolutely could do that. You can run it locally and access it on localhost:8010

      You can run it on your laptop. I do.

      “Server” in this case refers to client-server architecture.

      That said this community is about hosting things on a computer you own which can very much be online. But this one works offline too.
