everfind - FOSS edition

everfind is a home inventory app for keeping track of what you own and where it is stored. It helps you organize houses, rooms, containers, boxes, and items, then search your inventory when you need to find something.

This repository contains the open-source FOSS edition of everfind. It is the local-first edition: no account is required, data is stored on your device, and the app can be used offline. The commercial everfind app is also available on:
