# HTTMELY App Description

## Short

HTTMELY is a local-first macOS reader for HTML and Markdown folder collections.

## Medium

HTTMELY lets you choose folders from anywhere on your Mac and browse local HTML or Markdown pages in a calm native reader. Add folders, switch Places, open pages from the sidebar, use in-page contents navigation, and keep everything local.

## Selling Point

HTTMELY is simple as a viewer, but powerful as a local presentation layer.

Any script, export, or AI assistant can generate HTML/Markdown pages from apps, folders, logs, notes, projects, CSVs, JSON, or research material. Add the output folder to HTTMELY and it becomes a clean browsable collection.

Use it for saved websites, daily reports, Design.md research, blog drafts, local docs, project packets, and generated page collections.

## Feature Bullets

- Open local HTML and Markdown folders.
- Save multiple places and switch between them.
- Browse pages in a native macOS sidebar.
- Show optional in-page contents navigation.
- Open or reveal source files in Finder.
- Rename, reorder, and remove folder shortcuts without touching files on disk.
- Export or archive local folders.
- Keep state local: selected place, window size, sidebar, and contents.
- Use generated HTML/Markdown from any workflow as a polished local library.
- Read saved website archives without turning them into a cloud collection.
- Keep Design.md screenshots, notes, and tokens together.

## What It Is Not

HTTMELY is not a cloud notes app, website builder, analytics dashboard, or hosted documentation service.

It is a local reader for folders of pages.

The extra layer is that those pages can be generated from almost anything.
