CLUSTER DOCUMENTS-EDITOR-FIRST · 9 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2026-01-31
Local-first versioned editors
This cluster consists of local-first document editors that version-control notes and office documents, with features like branching, merging, and revision history. The dated history is too thin to read a shape from, as only two pre-index entries exist. All traction leaders (Mira, knot-editor, v2) show zero stars, so no product has emerged as a clear frontrunner.
Entry timeline
ENTRY TIMELINE
Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.

Ranked by traction, highest first, and paged 20 at a time — this is a window on the cluster, never the whole of it. Ties are broken by a stable id so a product cannot appear on two pages or fall between them. Browse every cluster.
