Keep your words local

Local-first is the product

mindwtr is an Electron app with SQLite on your machine. There is no account screen. There is no default sync.

Your journal stays where you wrote it.

What offline means day to day

You can write on a plane, in a cabin, or anywhere the network is unreliable. Opening the app does not phone home for permission to think.

Exports and backups are your choice, on your schedule.

Profiles as boundaries

Profiles keep contexts apart. A work thinking space and a personal journal do not need to share a database view. Switch when you switch roles.

Privacy without theater

We do not sell task or note data because we do not hold it. The privacy policy on this site describes what the marketing website may collect; the desktop app is designed so your writing does not leave the device by default.

Write freely. The machine is the vault.

Open source, inspectable

mindwtr is open source at github.com/wilforlan/mindwtr. You can read how storage works, build from source, and decide what to run on your machine.

Local-first is not a slogan here — it is the architecture.
