Local Code takes a different approach to AI coding: everything runs on your Mac, offline. Built by the Draw Things team, it brings the full agentic loop — writing code, editing files, refactoring, debugging, generating tests — to your machine without sending a single byte to the cloud.
That's a big deal when you consider what coding assistants normally see: proprietary code, API keys, unreleased product work. For freelancers under NDA or teams with compliance requirements, Local Code removes the trust problem entirely. The trade-off is real — local models can't match the biggest cloud models — but for many developers on Apple silicon, it's a trade worth making.
