About Chronicler
Chronicler is a worldbuilding tool and private wiki for writers, novelists, and tabletop RPG game masters. Each character, place, or faction gets its own linked page, and the pages are saved on the user's computer as plain Markdown files. The homepage says it works offline without an account and that it has no subscription. Its linking, infobox, template, and page-insert features help keep a large body of lore organized and consistent.
The source lists Windows, macOS, and Linux as supported platforms. It does not state pricing beyond the homepage's no-subscription claim, and the directory lists it as not open source.
