Martin Kleppmann presents the motivations and underlying research for Automerge, an open-source library pioneering local-first software development for collaborative applications.

Local-first software is an effort to make collaboration software less dependent on cloud services, and Automerge is an open-source library for realising local-first software. In this talk I explain our motivation for creating Automerge, and map out 7 years worth of research projects that are feeding into this project.
