Households

A WordPress app for running a household, or several. A home is a place with its own address: its people, the facts the house needs you to know, the things kept there and what needs doing.

How these apps work

The same for every app on this site.

  • It lives on your WordPressThe app is a plugin. Its data is stored in your own site, next to your other apps, and you can export it with the tools WordPress already has.
  • No account hereTrying it in the browser needs no sign-up. Installing it on your own site needs no account with us either.
  • No subscription, no per-user feeThe app is open source and free. Nobody can change the terms on you later.
  • Yours to changeRemove what does not fit, add what is missing, or have an AI assistant adapt it for the way you work.

Apps that live well next to it

Installed on the same WordPress, apps share the same users, permissions and media library.

  • Collectibles

    Productivity

    Catalog your collections — coins, stamps, banknotes, trading cards, records, books, comics, watches, or whatever else you keep in a drawer. Each kind of collection asks for the fields and the grading scale that kind actually uses, and every collection has photos, tags, wishlists and totals.

  • Cookbook

    Productivity

    Store your recipes in your WordPress. All the basics like ingredients, step, portion calculator. Paste a URL to pull a recipe in from the web. AI enabled so that you can get help with adapting and creating new recipes.
