One File · Powerful food tracker
Sow it. Mind it.
Eat it.
A garden journal in one HTML file. Plants, sowings, harvests — and a frost-aware banner that tells you whether it's safe to direct-sow tomorrow or whether the brassicas need to come indoors.

Loads once, never needs the internet again. On a plane, in a basement, in a foreign hotel.
Every entry, every chart — stored locally. We never see it. We can't.
No subscription. No upgrades. No re-up next year. One file, yours.
Why log
Why kitchen-gardeners end up keeping notes.
Memory is unreliable two seasons later. The journal isn't.
Frost dates are gospel.
Most gardening regret is sowing too early or transplanting too late. Set your local dates once and the dashboard does the math.
Per-plant yield reveals the real winners.
Top-producers list at the end of the season tells you which seed to buy again. Memory says 'tomatoes did fine'; the data says 'Cherokee Purple beat Sungold by 30%'.
Holiday-watering is a sharable list.
Hand a friend the URL. They water what's due. You come back to a jungle, not a wake.
Sowings + harvests over years compound.
Year three of records is when the patterns get genuinely useful — when to start brassicas, what to never grow again, which bed needs lime.

The promise
Your beds and harvests are yours.
Not anyone's training set.
Offline, always
Open it once, never need the internet again. The file holds the whole app.
Local-first storage
Every entry stored in your browser, on your device. No server sync. No leaks. Nothing to breach.
One payment, forever
No subscription, no upgrade tier, no nag. If we shut down OneFileClub tomorrow, your file keeps working.
Data does not sync automatically between phone and desktop
This is a local-first app — everything stays on the device you logged it on. To use it on both phone and desktop, use the built-in JSON or CSV export on one device and import on the other when you want to keep them in step.
Every view, light and dark.
A look at every screen across both themes — your tracker, populated.
Questions
Real answers, no fine print.
Does it identify plants from a photo?+
No — that needs an AI service and a server, which means an account and a subscription. Bring the variety; the journal handles the rest.
Does it tell me when to sow?+
Indirectly — set your last and first frost dates, and the dashboard tells you whether warm-season starts are safe and whether autumn plantings will mature in time. Specifics still depend on you.
Where is my data stored?+
Locally, in your browser, on your device. Nothing is sent to OneFileClub or anyone else — there is no account, no cloud sync, no analytics.
Does it work offline?+
Yes. Once your personalised copy loads the first time, the entire tracker runs from a single HTML file. Airplane mode is fine.
What does 'personalised copy' mean?+
When you buy, OneFileClub stamps a private copy with your licence and deploys it to a unique URL just for you. You bookmark it, install it as an app, or save the file — and the file is yours, even if OneFileClub disappears tomorrow.
What is your refund policy?+
14 days, no questions asked. Email us, we'll process it and disable your private URL.
One payment.
A garden's worth of memory.
We'll personalise a copy and email you a private link. Bookmark it, install it, plan the spring sowings before the frost lifts.
