Visit this page to download: react-local-fetch Releases
react-local-fetch helps a React or Next.js app keep data ready on your computer. It saves data in your browser so the app can open faster and keep working when the network is weak or offline.
It uses a simple sync pattern that keeps local data and server data in step. It also supports secure storage with Web Crypto when encryption is turned on.

react-local-fetch stores fetched data in IndexedDB, which is built into modern browsers. That means data can stay on the device instead of being pulled from the network every time.
When encryption is enabled, the app can protect saved data with the Web Crypto API. This helps keep local data private on shared computers.
