A personal operating system for WordPress

Your life.
Your data.
All connected.

A home for your notes, tasks, and everyday things. Independent apps that speak the same language: WordPress Knowledge.

Self-hosted. Open source. Yours to build on.

Built on WordPress Six independent plugins One shared data model GPL-2.0-or-later

01 / THE CONNECTIVE TISSUE

Different apps.
Common ground.

A highlight you saved. A task you need to finish. The box with your camera gear. They belong to your life. Their data should live together, too.

PersonalOS stores them as native WordPress Knowledge records. Each app adds its own view and behavior; compatible plugins and tools can work with the same underlying content.

01

Shared meaning

Knowledge Types describe what a record is and where it belongs. Apps keep their own focused views.

02

Native building blocks

Posts, terms, blocks, media, and REST. Familiar WordPress primitives make your data useful beyond one interface.

03

Room for your tools

Build on the core Knowledge API. TODO also exposes task actions through the WordPress Abilities API.

02 / BUILD YOUR OWN EVERYDAY

A small set of tools.
A very personal system.

Start with what you need. Add what you love.
Every module is a standalone plugin. No other PersonalOS plugin required.

04 / A DIGITAL HOME, ON YOUR TERMS

Apps come and go.
Your knowledge stays.

These plugins add ways to work with your data. The records live in WordPress, and remain there when a PersonalOS plugin is deactivated or uninstalled.

User-created records are private by default, with WordPress controlling access. Sync services and AI providers are connections you configure. Stuff photos use standard WordPress Media URLs; private records do not make those files private.

Read the code. Make it your own.

SMALL TOOLS. AN OPEN FOUNDATION.
