While most aspects of Memento are common between the Mobile and Desktop editions, this wiki (generally) contains only information about the Mobile edition of Memento. Each page shows at the top of the page the version of the Mobile edition current as of the most recent change to the page. It also shows the version number of the Desktop edition current as of that date. Note the Help accessible within the app and from Help on the MementoDatabase.com Web site. Memento Help contains assistance for both the Mobile and Desktop editions.

=== Introduction ===
The Memento Database Desktop edition is a perfect compliment to the Mobile edition.  I started with the mobile app and have never looked back.  With now over 25 libraries created I can store, manipulate, and manage my personal and small business data in real time, by using either edition.
 
This section is dedicated to the Desktop edition; however, when appropriate we will identify Desktop features that are different and/or not available in the Mobile edition.
 
=== Desktop Edition Welcome Page ===
Once you launch Memento Database Desktop, you get access to all libraries created from your account and the ones shared with you.

:  '''Workspace''' -  the workspace is all the area inside the window to the right of the Sidebar.  The workspace changes depending on your selection in the Sidebar.


=== Customizing the window interface ===
There are two options to customize Memento’s window interface.  Bootstrap theme or Classic theme.  To choose your theme, select “Help” from the Menu bar, scroll down to “Theme”.
