Local First Software

The label emerged from the article [Ink & Switch Local-first Software](https://www.inkandswitch.com/local-first/)

[[Martin Kleppmann]]'s definitions

1. If it is local-only, it isn’t local-first.
2. If it doesn’t work offline, it isn’t local-first.
3. If it doesn’t work if the developer goes out of business, it isn’t local first.
