#9 – Dax Raad: Local-First SaaS
I feel like someone could release a github competitor using convex, https://youtu.be/aAdQBDAjjEk?si=WbcMLvwwNkju5vpN.
In the last hack someone made: https://gitvex.mdhruvil.page/ and I think its incredible.
the cursor+graphite team might be working on releasing their own product, I'm curious on where the space ends up since they probably have the ability to dethrone the kind, and if we get to a actually decent git cloud interface with stacking and some local first patterns for responsive behavior. This isn't too terribly convex related just some interesting thoughts I had on the landscape and dax mentioned the problems with github somewhere in the start of the video.
