A desktop dashboard for a folder of Markdown files — projects, incidents, and documents kept as plain .md under projects/YYYY-MM/YYYY-MM-DD-<slug>/README.md. The files are the source of truth; condash is the live view on top.
That folder is a conception: a plain directory — usually a git repo — whose projects/ tree holds dated work items and whose knowledge/ tree holds durable reference notes, both rendered live by condash. New here? Start with the intro at Get started — about ten minutes, with a checkpoint at every step.
- Lists every project in your tree, grouped by status (now, review, later, backlog, done).
- Renders each project's README, notes, deliverables, and embedded PDFs in-place.
- Tracks the git state of any repos you've linked to a project, with one-click run / stop / open.
- Ships a built-in terminal and a knowledge-tree browser alongside the project pane.
- No server, no database, no account — your
.mdfiles stay yours.
Electron on the outside, Node + Solid + esbuild on the inside, with one typed CondashApi IPC contract across the preload boundary — no backend, no database, the Markdown tree is the database. The narrative behind the map: Internals.
Everything lives at condash.vcoeur.com:
- Get started — install, first launch, releases.
- Tutorials — a day in the life of a condash workflow.
- Reference — every CLI verb, config key, shortcut, mutation.
- Background — values, non-goals, internals, why Markdown-first.
The same pages are bundled inside the app under the Help menu.
