# Local-first: GitHub trend and outlook to 2032

On TutorHero's Everything Index (September 2026), Local-first is emerging on GitHub: 4.91 of every 10,000 new public repos carried it over the last three months, about 4.6k new repos a month, 40x its share a year earlier. TutorHero's 12-month forecast (damped growth, beat a flat guess on past GitHub lines) says rising (+113%). By the end of 2032, past GitHub lines in the same state ended between 0.01x and 2.5x of where they started, median 0.54x: a base rate, not a prediction of this line. In the 4 weeks to 2026-10-18, 5.1k new repos carried it, -16% against the typical tag. On Hacker News, about 47 stories a month carry it in the title (+196% share of HN in a year). Its Wikipedia article gets about 644 views a month by people (n/a share in a year). Compared with the typical trend it is built more than talked about. It sits in the Self-hosted apps megatrend. Not investment advice.
