Free and MIT licensed
Open source tools you can inspect, fork, host, and adapt without a vendor permission loop.
MikroSuite
A family of small tools and libraries for writing, planning, drawing, chat, meetings, analytics, uptime, logs, and product work.
Use them locally when the work is private. Host them yourself when a team needs to share it.
Free MIT software. Instant load time. Sub-100kb apps. Clean modern design. Minimal resources.
Start in the browser.
Five local-first apps are available online now. Open one, make something, and export your work when you need to move it.
A quick look at the apps.
The Mikro family uses a design philosophy that aims to be to-the-point, calm, subtle, modern, and useful, without any bells and whistles or distracting interface flair.
Free, fast, and open.
MikroSuite is built around instant-loading, sub-250kb apps with conventional setup, clean modern interfaces, and minimal runtime requirements.
Fastest on the market
Instant load time by design: plain browser surfaces, tiny bundles, and no heavy platform shell.
Lightest on the market
Apps stay under 250kb, keeping deploys simple and interfaces quick on ordinary devices.
Runs anywhere modern
Works in any modern browser, with conventional setup and minimal resources on self-hosted installs.
Small, boring, ownable.
The design goal is not to build another work platform. It is to make useful software that stays understandable after installation.
Own the place where work happens
Run the server when the job needs a server. Keep browser-local work in the browser. Move data out in ordinary formats.
Prefer boring storage
IndexedDB, SQLite, NDJSON, CSV, JSON, Markdown. The data layer should be understandable after the branding fades.
Start small and stay small
Plain browser surfaces, restrained dependencies, and a narrow shape for each narrow piece of work.
No surveillance as a business model
No surprise tracking, engagement loops, or analytics theater. Useful software does not need to watch you work.
One tool per job.
Each Mikro tool and library keeps its own shape, storage model, and installation path.
