organice is not a server that serves pages that can be displayed well on phones. It is a standalone application that runs in your browser (phone or desktop) and is capable of not only displaying, but also editing your Org files.

Very interesting project. I've recently switched todolists and journals to text files on google drive. Editing on mobile is not an optimal experience, but it feels great not being locked in. Might be worth highlighting that it's all text files?

Good to see Swiss made software on here. Greetings from Japan!

Okay, it's a PWA that is served from a server. The code in the repo is the code for that server. (We could waste some time defining "server".) You wouldn't deny that? Docker containers don't run on phones. But I agree the borders get blurred with PWAs.

Organice is a front-end application. As you said a PWA or SPA.

No, I do not deny that it needs a web server. It also needs no docker. Any old Apache or Nginx would do just as well.
