Sync & Storage
File-first architecture with real-time WebDAV sync, full-text search, and version history.
Your filesystem is the source of truth
Documents are stored as plain Markdown files, securely stored. A PostgreSQL metadata layer provides fast search, tagging, and querying without locking you into a proprietary format. Move, copy, or edit files directly — Lifestream Vault watches for changes and keeps everything in sync.
WebDAV sync for every device
A full WebDAV server is built into every Lifestream Vault instance. Connect Obsidian, iA Writer, or any WebDAV-compatible client. CORS support for desktop and mobile apps. Documents sync automatically with conflict detection.
Instant full-text search
PostgreSQL-powered full-text search with websearch syntax, ranked results, and highlighted snippets. Search across all vaults or scope to a single vault. GIN indexes on content, tags, and frontmatter for sub-second queries even on large document collections.
Full version history with diff and restore
Every edit creates a version snapshot with full content storage and SHA-256 hashing. Browse version history, view any previous version, and compare changes with side-by-side diffs. Restore any version with a single click. Pin important versions to prevent automatic pruning, and configure retention policies to manage storage.
