Offline-First
Offline-first is a software design approach where applications are built to function fully without an internet connection, using local storage for data and syncing changes with remote servers when connectivity is available.
理解する Offline-First
Traditional web applications assume reliable internet connectivity. Offline-first applications invert this assumption: the local device is the primary data store, and the server is the sync target rather than the source of truth. Service workers, IndexedDB, and local SQLite databases enable web and mobile apps to cache data locally and queue changes made offline. When connectivity returns, the application syncs changes bidirectionally, resolving any conflicts that occurred during offline periods. For productivity tools, offline capability is critical: you need access to your tasks, calendar, and notes regardless of connectivity.
GAIAの活用方法 Offline-First
GAIA's desktop and mobile applications support offline-first access to your data. Your tasks, calendar, and recent conversations are cached locally and accessible without connectivity. Changes made offline are queued and synced when connection is restored. Agent features that require LLM inference need connectivity, but viewing and editing your data works offline.

Real-Time Sync
Real-time sync is the process of ensuring that data changes in one system are immediately propagated to all connected systems, maintaining consistent state across multiple data sources without manual refresh.
Conflict Resolution (Data Sync)
Conflict resolution in data synchronization is the process of determining how to merge or resolve discrepancies when the same piece of data has been modified in multiple systems or by multiple users simultaneously.
Data Sovereignty
Data sovereignty is the principle that data is subject to the laws and governance of the jurisdiction where it is stored, and that individuals and organizations have the right to control where their data resides and who has access to it.
