This page explores local first software - software that keeps your data locally as much as possible and only sends it over the network for synchronization or backup.

| Cloud-first software | Local-first alternative |
|---|---|
| Google Docs | LibreOffice + Syncthing |
| Evernote | Emacs org-mode + Syncthing |
| ToDoist | Emacs org-agenda, Orgzly + Syncthing |
