Work with local files

Eidos Lite opens a local folder as a Space. Keep your .eidos files, Markdown notes, and attachments together, and work offline without signing in. Eidos File stores structured data in portable SQLite-backed files; Lite provides folder navigation, local Graft history, and optional Sync.

Install and open a Space, then create your first table. The walkthrough introduces fields, records, and views with one example.
