Understandable by default.
The interface should explain itself. Power can be there without making the basics feel complicated.
About AppRanger
Useful by design.
Human in character.
AppRanger is an independent home for focused software, created by Chris Hobden in the United Kingdom.

The idea
One clear job is plenty.
Each Ranger begins with a specific problem worth solving. The aim is not to become the centre of your computer, but to make one part of it calmer, clearer, or more enjoyable.
Our bearing
Native where it matters.
Apps should belong on the platform: respectful of its conventions, accessibility, and the tools people already use.
Your work stays yours.
Local files, transparent formats, and restrained data collection are preferable to dependence for its own sake.
Character without clutter.
Software can be warm and memorable while remaining quiet when it is time to get something done.
