|   | [Haven](https://havenweb.org) is a private blog application built with Ruby on Rails. Write what you want, create accounts for people you want to share with, keep up with each other using built-in RSS. | ||
|  |

|  | Try out a live demo at https://havenweb.org/demo.html | ||

 | ||
|  | The following are some motivating philosophies: | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | * Open-source. MIT License | ||
|  | * Privacy-first.  This is for sharing with friends and family, not commercial endevors.  If you want a blog for your company, you probably want to use WordPress or Ghost instead. | ||
|  | * Easy to use.  Built-in web interface for managing users, customizing the blog, and writing/editing posts with markdown and live-preview. | ||
|  | * Low-bandwidth friendly.  Images get downscaled to reduce page load times.  No javascript frameworks.  No ads or trackers. | ||
|  | * Customizable.  Add custom CSS or fonts. | ||
|  | * No spam. There is no self-signup for users so there is no place for unauthorized users to impact your life. | ||
|  | * Media support for images, videos, and audio. | ||
|  | * Private RSS feeds for your friends to follow you. | ||
|  | * Build-in RSS reader to follow your favorite blogs. |
