FAQ

Is this a good first family tree?

Yes — it is intentionally minimal: three generations, no clutter, easy to finish in one sitting.

Can I extend it later?

Yes. Add great-grandparents or cousins whenever you want; the layout adapts.

Do my relatives need an account to view it?

No — export an image and share it anywhere; nothing to log in to.
