Shtender is a calm, offline-first companion for daily Torah learning. Track Daf Yomi, Chitas, Shnayim Mikra, Mishnah Yomit, Nach Yomi, the weekly parsha, Rambam, Tehillim, Sefer HaMitzvos, and more — all computed locally, no network calls required to know what today's shiur is. Browse the complete Torah library: Chumash, Nach, Mishnah, Talmud Bavli and Yerushalmi, Halakhah (Shulchan Arukh, Rambam, Tur, Kitzur), Chassidus, Musar, Kabbalah, Midrash, and more. Hebrew with English translation and the classical commentaries (Rashi, Tosafot, Ramban, Ibn Ezra, and many more). Local-first: sign in only if you want to back up and sync across your devices. Your shiurim, progress, and preferences live on your device until you choose otherwise. Free to use. Support the project via Buy Me a Coffee if you'd like to help cover server costs.
