I won a new grant (yaay!) and dipping my toes in the role of PI in my university. For now, I will have a PhD, a post doc and a couple of masters students in my team.
In all my previous labs, everything was on paper and very poorly documented (…don’t ask). I myself used to use LaTeX to keep a “neat” labnote. Obviously, it is not easy to collaborate and work with others.
Any researchers here who have experience hosting their own e-lab book in their labs?
Idk if latex is optimal for note taking, or if others will warm to it if forced, but overleaf is obv collaborative though not selfhosted.
I’ve liked Outline https://www.getoutline.com/ and while I haven’t used it collaboratively, it really highlights that it’s a primary goal. It’s supposed to be a collaborative/dynamic wyswyg wiki thing. You need a SSO service like authentik or authelia for it, it doesn’t do login. But that’s good for security anyway!
