Montella: A Privacy-First Project Management Browser Extension for Local Task Organization
By
Mehmet Kose
Pure flour-power. Hearty enough to carry you through lunch.
Summary
Montella is a privacy-first project management browser extension built by a solo indie developer. It allows users to manage everything as projects in their browser's new tab, with features like nested projects, task linking across multiple projects, and toggle between kanban/list views. All data stays locally in the browser with no accounts, servers, or tracking, and can be exported as JSON. The tool is designed for simplicity and privacy, contrasting with complex or cloud-dependent alternatives.
Key quotes
· 5 pulledI built Montella because I needed one place to manage everything — my startup ideas, freelance clients, learning goals, life stuff.
Existing tools were either too complex or too cloud-dependent. I wanted something simple, private, and always there when I open a browser.
All your data stays in your browser — no accounts, no servers, no tracking. Export everything as JSON with one click.
Your life is a project. Finally plan it like one.
Everything is a project (nest them infinitely for the big picture). Link one task to multiple projects.
