Atlas documentation
Atlas is a free, local-only macOS app for university students — markdown lecture notes with live-rendered math, your timetable and your tasks in one window, with nothing leaving your Mac.
Everything runs on your machine: your tasks and subjects live in a local SQLite database, your notes are plain markdown files in a folder you control, and there’s no account to create and nothing to sync.
