Why it exists

Technical research is usually split across source files, data, scripts, references, review notes, and rendered documents. VEXTA gives those materials one visible project structure and keeps the source beside what it produces.

Projects stay local by default. The hosted private beta adds authenticated collaboration and encrypted persistence without changing the project model used for editing, compilation, review, and export.

Working surface

  • Work across Markdown, Quarto, notebooks, Typst, LaTeX, references, data, and research scripts.
  • Edit source beside live Markdown and compiled PDF views.
  • Review claims, comments, citations, and stale outputs in the same project context.
  • Export documents, source archives, research packages, and finished PDFs.

Version 0.4.1

Version 0.4.1 includes interface catalogs for English, Chinese, French, German, and Spanish. Vexta Island keeps Files, Context, Assistant, and workspace health next to the active document, then contracts when no tool needs attention.

The hosted workspace remains invite-only. The current macOS package is ad-hoc signed for local development and controlled testing; it is not Developer ID signed or notarized.
