- The file is read in-browser and not uploaded; living people can be hidden or shown by name only.
Field notes
The workflow begins with a GEDCOM export from a family-tree program and lets the user choose a home person plus an Ancestors or Descendants view. The page says the file is read locally and disappears on reload; it also describes living-person controls and a seven-point minimum for judging poster fit. A sample uses invented names, and the planned $49 print option is not yet available.
