Selfhosted PDF manager, viewer and editor offering a seamless user experience on multiple devices. - mrmn2/PdfDing

Hi c/selfhosted,

I am the developer of PdfDing. As this feature was requested quite often I wanted to inform you that it is now possible to edit PDFs by adding annotations, highlighting and drawings. You can find the repo here.

I also got the feedback that organizing PDFs with simple tags does not work for many people. It is now possible to organize PDFs with multi-level tags. I hope this will improve the user experience.

If you like PdfDing I would be really happy over a star on GitHub. As the project is open source, if anyone wants to contribute you are welcome to do so!

Do I understand correct that it is a document manager, specialized on PDFs? I tried various EDMs for personal use (e.g. Mayan, paperless), but was never really happy, so maybe I find time to give it a spin.

t is all about reading and organizing your PDFs. I started this project because I wanted a web app where I can read longer PDFs seamlessly on my desktop and mobile devices.

Yes, you do. I do not know however you complex the management part needs to be for you. You could give it a try and if you are missing something just create an issue on github and I see what I can do :)
