A distraction-free writing space where thoughts can breathe.
We all carry ideas and thoughts that need somewhere to go. Writing them out is one of the simplest ways to make sense of them.
Lumowrite is a minimalist writing app designed for freewriting - that beautiful practice of putting words on a page without judgment, editing, or pressure. Just you, your thoughts, and a clean space to let them flow.
- Distraction-free interface - No menus, no formatting options, no clutter. Just words.
- Built-in timer - Set focused writing sessions from 1-60 minutes
- Auto-save - Your writing is saved locally as you type
- Privacy-first - Everything stays on your device unless you choose to share
- Export options - Save as .txt, .md, .html, or .rtf
- ChatGPT integration - Reflect on your writing with AI when you're ready
- Dark/light themes - Write in whatever feels right
- Font customization - Adjust size and font-family to your preference
- Fullscreen mode - Immerse yourself completely. No distractions.
- Just start writing - No setup, no accounts, no friction
- Set a timer if you want structure (or don't)
- Let your thoughts flow - Don't edit, don't judge, just write
- Reflect with AI when you're done (optional)
- Export your writing if you want to keep it
This isn't a note-taking app or a word processor. It's a space for thinking out loud on paper. For processing emotions, working through decisions, or simply letting your mind wander.
There's no right way to use it. You might:
- Dump your thoughts when you're overwhelmed
- Talk through a decision you're facing
- Vent about something bothering you
- Explore an idea that's been nagging at you
- Just see what comes up when you start typing
The magic happens when you stop trying to write "well" and just write honestly.
- Next.js 14 - React framework with App Router
- TypeScript - Type safety
- Tailwind CSS - Styling
- Vercel Analytics - Privacy-friendly analytics
Your writing is stored locally in your browser. Nothing is sent to servers unless you explicitly choose to use the ChatGPT reflection feature. Even then, we don't store your writing - it goes directly to OpenAI according to their privacy policy.
This is an open source project built for writers, by writers. Contributions are welcome!
