Introduction

Worklog is a local-first desktop project manager designed for engineers and creators who value speed, privacy, and seamless Git collaboration.

The Local-First Philosophy

We believe that your project data should belong to you, not a cloud provider. Worklog combines the power of a modern Kanban interface with the reliability of a local SQLite database and the distribution capabilities of Git. Fast, private, and always available.

Why Worklog?

Traditional project management tools often force you into slow, browser-based interfaces and vendor lock-in. Worklog is different:

  • Zero Latency: Since data is stored locally in SQLite, every interaction is instantaneous.
  • Full Privacy: No cloud backend means your private project details never leave your machine unless you push them to your own Git remote.
  • Keyboard First: Navigate and manage tasks using a powerful command palette and configurable shortcuts.
  • Git as Backend: Use your existing Git infrastructure for team collaboration without complex API integrations.
