Field notes
The page describes a hold library with several grip types and individually adjustable orientations, plus grid and staggered T-nut wall layouts. Routes can be annotated with a grade and notes; the listed export formats are PNG for a setting sheet and JSON for reopening or handing off a project. The page says saving is local. More advanced wall visualization and configuration options are presented as in development, not as available features.
