About Hammer

Hammer is a multi-platform tool for writing and organizing stories. It is designed to work offline and store projects as human-readable files and folders on the device, rather than requiring an account or cloud database. Users can inspect those files through the operating system’s file browser, so the project material remains accessible outside the app. The app can also synchronize story data between devices. Sync is optional: a writer can use Hammer on one device without setting up a server, or install a self-hosted server to coordinate work across devices. The description says its syncing is designed to avoid one device’s changes simply overwriting another’s, supporting continued work in multiple places. Hammer is aimed at writers who want a local-first environment and direct control over their project files, with the option to synchronize when needed. Its evidence describes story writing, readable file storage, offline use, and self-hosted synchronization, but does not specify outlining, formatting, export, or publishing features.
