The code is open source. Anyone can review the implementation, build it from source, or contribute improvements.
Uses a SQLite database and provides a Markdown mirror, making materials easier to read, migrate, and reuse.
No account system. No central cloud sync. All data stays on your personal devices; devices sync over the local network.
Built around Piotr Woźniak’s incremental reading ideas, with a native workflow for extracting passages, creating cloze deletions, and refining materials without leaving the reading flow.
Integrates FSRS (Free Spaced Repetition Scheduler), an open and efficient review scheduling algorithm.
Handles reading materials from different sources, whether local files, web documents, notes managed in Obsidian, or materials exported from Readwise Reader.
Indexes other local folders on your computer without copying or moving the original files, creating an external document library that can be searched, viewed, and used across supported clients.
Supports Markdown, PDF, EPUB, LaTeX math, code blocks, and other content rendering needs.
Special thanks to Piotr Woźniak and Jarrett Ye. Without SuperMemo, incremental reading, and FSRS, Foliole would not exist.
