# CryptPad CryptPad is a privacy-first, end-to-end encrypted collaboration suite. Documents are encrypted in the browser before being stored — the server never sees plaintext content. ## Configuration Key settings in `config.yaml`: - **domain** - Main domain for CryptPad - **sandboxDomain** - Sandbox subdomain for secure iframe isolation (default: `cryptpad-sandbox.{your-cloud-domain}`) - **storage** - Persistent volume size (default: `2Gi`) ## Usage No account is required to create documents. Just visit the app URL and start creating spreadsheets, code pads, presentations, or rich-text documents. Share the document URL with collaborators. ## Admin Setup To access the admin panel, you need to register an account and then link it to the `adminKey` secret: 1. Register an account at the app URL 2. Go to your user settings and copy your **Public Signing Key** 3. The `adminKey` in `secrets.yaml` should match this key — it is pre-populated with a generated value, but you must replace it with your actual account's public signing key after registering 4. Once set, the **Admin** link will appear in the user menu ## Notes - Both the main domain and the sandbox domain must be accessible — CryptPad uses the sandbox domain for secure iframe isolation, and the app will not function correctly if one is missing - All encryption keys are generated client-side — if you lose your account passphrase, documents cannot be recovered - The instance can be configured to require registration before creating documents (via the admin panel)
