Hi c/selfhosted,
after quiet 6 months I am back with great news about PdfDing. I am very happy to announce that PdfDing is receiving a grant from the NGI Zero Commons Fund. This fund is dedicated to helping deliver, mature and scale new internet commons across the whole technology spectrum and is amongst others funded by the European Commission. The exact sum of the grant still needs to be discussed, but obviously I am very stocked to have been selected in this funding round as one of the few projects that can be selfhosted. It’s also great timing, because the past half year has been very busy both in my private and professional life, but in the coming months I finally have time again to continue improving PdfDing.
PdfDing is a selfhosted PDF manager, viewer and editor offering a seamless user experience on multiple devices. You can find the repository here. As always I would be quite happy about a star and you trying out the application.

Nice!
For someone unfamiliar, can you explain why someone would host PDFs? Are there any organisations that already do this?
Also, what would be the difference between this and
pdf.js
(e.g. Firefox viewer) when it comes to the viewer?mrmn2@lemmy.world 59 minutes ago
In short: Managing and consuming PDFs seamlessly on multiple devices. You can continue reading on your mobile device were you stopped reading on your laptop. I started implementing the app as there was no other app that satisfied my requirements:
Surprisingly, there was no solution available that could do this. In the following I’ll list the available alternatives and how they compare to my requirements.
