Meet .nexusStack, a focused workspace for everything around a job, client, project or personal goal. Each one gets its own stack, with deliverables, checklists, notes, mind maps, repos and links, so nothing gets mixed up. STAY ON TOP OF THE WORK Track deliverables with due dates and reminders, and see what's overdue at a glance. Sort to-dos into Now, Next and Later, then clear them one at a time in Focus mode. CAPTURE EVERYTHING Write rich notes, and keep files, photos, scanned documents and links on the same board. Text recognition makes it all searchable, and any note or file can become tasks in a tap. THINK VISUALLY Map ideas on a fluid, zoomable canvas. Choose a layout, switch to an outline, send ideas to your task lists, present branch by branch, and export to PDF, PNG, Markdown or OPML. KNOW WHERE THINGS STAND Each stack shows its insights at a glance: completions, on-time rate, streaks and recent activity, plus details tailored to the stack type. KEEP CODE AND DOCS CLOSE Browse GitHub repos, branches and files from any stack, and sign in to see your private repos. Save Confluence links per stack. Repo Pro (optional in-app purchase) adds syntax highlighting, search, bookmarks, rendered Markdown, diffs and blame. MADE FOR EVERY SCREEN Designed for iPhone, iPad and iPhone Duo, with home screen and Lock Screen widgets and an optional Liquid Glass look. MAKE IT YOURS Use the clean default theme, or choose Midnight Neon, Aurora, Prism or Obsidian (optional in-app purchases). PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your data stays on your device. No account required. BUILT FOR • Freelancers and contractors juggling multiple clients • Team leads coordinating deliverables across projects • Engineers, PMs and tech pros who want notes, tasks and repos side by side
