All wrapped in a cozy, themeable UI that feels like home.

The screenshots above are captured with @noctcore/showcase-kit. pnpm showcase rebuilds them: it builds the web renderer in a dedicated showcase mode with invented demo data (no real account, library or files), then captures every view in English and Polish. See CONTRIBUTING.md for details.
