The local-only web
In this post, I explore the potential of the File System Access API to create local-only web experiences. I discuss how this API, combined with tools like Logseq, allows for on-device data storage outside the browser sandbox. While exciting, I also acknowledge the current limitations, such as the need to re-grant file access on refresh, the lack of a visual indicator for local-only sites, and the difficulty of preventing data exfiltration entirely. Despite these challenges, I believe this area holds significant potential and deserves further exploration.
