How It Works

• Local-First by Default: Drafft uses a local database that stores all your data on your device, ensuring complete privacy and offline access.
• No Internet Required: Work without an internet connection—your data never leaves your machine unless you choose to sync it.
• Self-Hosted Sync (Optional): If you need collaboration or cloud sync, you can opt to self-host a CouchDB instance, giving you full control over your data.

Why You'll Love It

• Privacy by Design: Your data is yours alone. Drafft doesn’t call home, track you, or store your data in any way.
• Complete Data Ownership: Whether you stay local or self-host, you retain full ownership of your data at all times.
• Flexible Collaboration: Self-hosting allows you to share and sync data securely with your team, without relying on third-party services.
• Export Anytime: If you ever decide not to use Drafft anymore, export your entire database in plain JSON—no lock-in, no hassle.

Local-First Privacy

Drafft prioritizes your privacy by keeping everything local. No cloud storage, no tracking—just your data, on your device.

Self-Hosted Sync

For those who need collaboration, Drafft lets you self-host a CouchDB database. This ensures you own your data while enabling seamless syncing across devices.
