Show HN: GYST – Digital organizer that replicates the feeling of a physical desk

Hi HN! I’ve been working on a tool that merges file explorer, whiteboard, bookmarking, note-taking & simple graphic design into one lightweight interface.

The idea is to make all these tools feel like one fluid space instead of 5 separate tools. The hope is to replicate the feeling of a physical desk : where order and freedom coexist.

This 15-min video walks through the current alpha and the vision for the full product : https://youtu.be/AcWzuBBuiPM

I’d love your feedback — especially around the concept and UX. The alpha is online if you want to try it: https://gyst.fr

This is a solo project for now, inspired by the “second brain” / PKM movement and my own frustration with fragmented tools and outdated UX.
