Kindling is a desktop writing app for fiction writers who outline before they draft. Import your outline from Plottr, yWriter, Obsidian Longform, or Markdown. Each scene beat becomes an expandable writing prompt with character and location references surfacing automatically. Export to DOCX, Markdown, or Obsidian Longform. Built with Rust and Tauri for fast, lightweight performance. All data stays local as SQLite files — no cloud, no accounts, no data collection. Works offline. MIT licensed. Key features: outline-aware drafting, context panel, multi-format import/export, sub-second launch, session persistence, distraction-free interface. Currently in open beta.
