41 // Local-first software with Martin Kleppmann

from Metamuse Hosted by Adam Wiggins, Mark McGranaghan, Martin Kleppmann

Local-first is a set of principles that enables collaborative software without the loss of data ownership associated with the cloud. Martin is a computer scientist on the frontier of this movement, and he joins Mark and Adam to discuss how creative people put their souls into their work; a vision for a generic AWS syncing service; and why local-first could be a breakthrough for indie app developers.
