# Welcome
|
||
|
||
Anytype is an **encrypted, local-first alternative** to the cloud-based Internet. 
|
||
|
||
With Anytype, you can build digital spaces around your interests. These spaces can be personal - for diaries, ideas and drafts, or shared - with your family, small communities, teams, neighbors and people with similar interests.
|
||
|
||
Unlike cloud applications, Anytype puts the control of encryption keys firmly in your hands, so you own your data and your social graph. Spaces you create are local first - they can be created offline and can sync peer-to-peer in local networks. 
|
||
|
||
Anytype is supported by [AnySync](https://tech.anytype.io/any-sync/overview) - an open-source protocol that supports high-performant collaboration over encrypted data and creators’ controlled keys. You can find our codebase [here](https://github.com/anyproto).
|
||
|
||
With every architectural choice, we aim to make [fundamental digital freedoms](https://youtu.be/6Hyr881Xi8A?si=tVftb8x9V5koMt0U) unconditional. Here you can read more of our thoughts on[ cloud vs. local first Internet.](https://blog.anytype.io/from-cloud-to-local-first/)
