Ignidex intentionally avoids:
- Charts, analytics, or dashboard widgets
- Project management or task tracking
- Accounts, sync, or external services
- Automation or scheduled jobs
If you need these, use a different tool. Ignidex is for starting.
| Principle | Description |
|---|---|
| Local-first | Data stays on your machine. No accounts. No tracking. |
| Minimal | Few concepts. Clear behavior. Low configuration surface. |
| Calm UI | Works quietly. Easy to use, easy to ignore. |
| Stable | Feature-complete is a valid end state. |
