Avlu is a local-first spatial note app for Mac, iPad, and iPhone that arranges plain Markdown files as rooms, objects, and visible connections.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-08 issue.

Field notes

Avlu organizes plain Markdown notes as furniture inside subject-specific rooms, with typed [[links]] rendered as visible lines between objects. The page says a note can be renamed without breaking its links, while frontmatter remains unchanged. Its review model uses dimming rooms and dusty objects to indicate neglected material rather than assigning ratings or schedules. The listed interfaces differ by device: Mac offers menu commands and shortcuts, iPhone uses four tabs, and iPad adapts the Mac layout to touch.
