🚀 How to Use

Option 1: Hosted (Recommended)

Visit mnemosyne.gbrlpzz.com.

Mnemosyne works on a Bring Your Own Key (BYOK) model.

1. Generate a GitHub Personal Access Token (Classic) with repo scope.
2. Enter it to unlock the archive.
3. The app automatically creates a private mnemosyne-db repository in your account.

Your token is stored only in your browser's local storage and used directly against the GitHub API. It never touches our servers (because there are no servers).

Option 2: Self-Host

Clone and run it locally or deploy to your own Vercel instance.

npm install
npm run dev
