Capture first.
Continue later.
Chinotto is a minimal desktop thinking tool built for the moment a thought appears.
Capture it instantly — without projects, folders, or workspaces.
Structure can come later — when you revisit.
Local-first. Desktop only. Optional device sync with the mobile app when you enable it in Settings.
