Self-host PineDocs

PineDocs is a fast, lightweight, self-hosted site for viewing files from a directory. It renders Markdown, plaintext, HTML, and code with syntax highlighting for many languages, plus images, vector graphics, animated images, mathematical notation, PDFs, audio, and short video clips — essentially anything a browser can display. No database is required; files are cached in the browser after first view for instant loads. It supports responsive layouts with several color schemes including a dark variant, quick filtering, hidden folders accessible via direct links, and remembers scroll position per page. The project is read-only — content is edited on the server or via git, not through a web UI. It can be deployed via Docker Compose (recommended), plain Docker, or manually on any PHP 8.0+ web server with Composer. Configuration is done through a YAML file controlling title, content directory, layout, color scheme, code highlighting theme, file exclusions, and more. The latest release is 1.2.5 from May 2022; the repository was last pushed in March 2023.
