MonoSuite: the thing became a little suite
MonoDraft started as a "I just need something simple" project.
No accounts. No feeds. No complicated syncing story. Just a clean place to write that doesn't fight me.
But once I had MonoDraft living in the browser, it felt obvious that the same approach could apply to the other little tools I always end up wanting when I'm trying to focus: a quick task list, a timer that doesn't nag like a cop, and a way to map out a process without opening a heavyweight app.
So MonoDraft quietly evolved into MonoSuite — a small collection of minimal tools for focused work:
- MonoDraft — writing for posts, docs, notes (with export + focus mode)
- MonoFlow — a simple workflow / diagram editor when I need to think visually
- MonoTask — lightweight to-dos that stay out of the way
- MonoTimer — ADHD-friendly timeboxing with gentle reminders and presets
Along the way, the whole suite got a style pass too. I leaned into a warmer, more "literary" look — cream backgrounds, terracotta accents, and the Fraunces typeface — plus solid light/dark themes that respect system settings. It's still minimal… it just feels nicer to live in.
Everything runs locally, saves to your browser, and stays intentionally boring in the best way. The goal isn't to replace your entire productivity stack. It's to give you a few calm tools you can actually use when your brain is already doing too much.
More soon. For now: MonoSuite exists, it's getting sharper, and it's exactly the kind of software I want around when I'm trying to do real work.
