Local page collections for macOS
HTTMELY
HTTMELY helps macOS users turn folders of HTML and Markdown into a calm native reader without uploads, accounts, or losing context in Finder.

HTML and Markdown folders
The app starts with real local collection examples.
The Problem
Useful work often ends as local files.
Reports, saved websites, design notes, exports, drafts, and generated docs can become hard to revisit. HTTMELY gives those folders a focused place to live.
Local reports stay readable as normal HTML files, with the app providing the native shell around them.
Who It Helps
One reader, several local workflows.
Each workflow keeps its own shape, while HTTMELY stays simple: choose a folder, save it as a Place, and read the pages locally.
Browse drafts like a small library.
Keep blog queues, saved pages, source notes, and reference packets together without publishing them first.
Collect Design.md studies locally.
Save screenshots, token files, typography notes, component observations, and design references in one folder.
How It Works
Point it at a folder. Read.
HTTMELY does not ask you to migrate your content. It reads the files you already have, remembers folder shortcuts as Places, and lets you move between local collections.
- 1. Choose a folder. Use any folder with HTML or Markdown pages.
- 2. Save it as a Place. Rename and reorder shortcuts without touching the real files.
- 3. Read in a native shell. Use the sidebar, page list, and optional contents panel.
Screenshots
Real pages, not mockups.
The app is intentionally quiet. The content leads; HTTMELY gives it structure, navigation, and a native macOS home.
A local folder can become a library, a report room, a design shelf, or a saved web archive. Ordinary files, intentional collections

FAQ
Plain answers.
Is this a reports app?
No. Reports are one great use case. HTTMELY is a general reader for local HTML and Markdown folders.
Does it change my files?
Reading and saving Places does not move or rewrite your source files. Export and archive actions are explicit.
Can AI tools write pages for it?
Yes. Any script or assistant can generate local HTML or Markdown. HTTMELY just opens the folder.
