LighterMind is built by one person. This repo is where the community gathers to shape what it becomes next.
For questions, ideas, feature requests, and sharing how you use the app.
- Q&A — stuck on something? Search past threads or ask.
- Ideas — propose new features, upvote others, debate trade-offs.
- Show & tell — share your tag systems, templates, dashboards, and workflows.
- General — anything else that doesn't fit elsewhere.
🐛 Issues
For confirmed bugs and reproducible problems.
When opening an issue, please include:
- What you were doing when it happened
- What you expected to happen
- What actually happened
- Your device and iOS/iPadOS/macOS version
- LighterMind version (found in Settings)
- Screenshots or screen recordings if relevant
If you're not sure whether something is a bug or expected behavior, start in Discussions.
I share what I'm working on, what just shipped, and what's coming next in Discussions → Announcements. Subscribe to that category to get notified.
Be kind. Disagree with ideas, not people. No spam, no harassment, no sales pitches. This community exists because building software in the open is more fun than building it in a vacuum — let's keep it that way.
For sensitive issues, account questions, or anything you'd prefer to keep off a public thread, email contact@lightermind.app.
LighterMind is one feed for your whole life — journal, planner, meals, routines, checklists, dashboards, and notes — organized by tags that work the way your mind thinks.
- Private and local-first. Your data lives on your device.
- iCloud sync across iPhone, iPad, and Mac.
- No account. No tracking. No ads. Ever.
