@localfirstconf @overtone Seeing so many frameworks (Jazz, DXOS, PowerSync, ...) and end-user apps (Anytype, Goodnotes, Linear ...) describe their technical architectures made it clear there’s a lot of **convergence on core patterns**. In his opening talk, @martin suggested we might be ready for an IETF protocol standard for local-first sync in the next few years. I was skeptical at first but after seeing these similarities it feels within reach!

@localfirstconf @overtone @martin One of our goals for the conf was to bring together people who come to local-first from many different directions: **technical, design, business, academic, and more**. Some are focused on developer experience or saving money on their out-of-control cloud provider bills. Others care about privacy or long-term philosophical goals. But despite this variety, the community feels **harmonious in shared values**.

@localfirstconf @overtone @martin My favorite thing was talking to the "local-first curious" attendees, many of whom had only heard of the term recently. One of these compared the **energy of this community** to React circa 2013.

Still plenty of **unsolved problems **including identity/auth, partial sync, data migrations, and economic model. But many people are making progress in these areas. It’s a wide-open frontier!

Grateful for everyone who helped make this happen ❤️
