Data Portability
Your checklists are plain JSON files in a directory you control. No proprietary format, no lock-in, no black box.
Where Your Data Lives
By default, data is stored at ~/Library/Application Support/Firelist/firelist-data/. You can change this from Settings or the initial setup sheet — pick any directory on your Mac.
The app watches the storage directory for external changes and prompts to reload. Edit your checklists in VS Code, manage them with Git, sync them with any tool — they're just files.
Open in Terminal
Choose Open Data Folder in Terminal from the app menu to jump straight to your data directory. From there, use Git, grep, rsync, or any command-line tool you prefer.
