Gramps

Gramps is a desktop application for building and managing family history records. It stores information about individuals, families, events, sources, and media, and offers tools for visualizing relationships through charts, trees, and timelines. Users can import and export data in standard genealogy formats, allowing integration with other research tools and online databases.

The software targets genealogists, hobbyists, and researchers who need a structured way to record and explore ancestry data on their own machines. It supports detailed annotations, source citations, and the ability to attach photographs, documents, and other media to entries, facilitating comprehensive documentation of lineage.

Designed for macOS, Gramps provides a stable, feature‑rich environment that runs locally without requiring an internet connection, making it suitable for offline work and long‑term preservation of personal family archives.
