 A modular, offline-first Flutter boilerplate for apps that store, sync, and share media and metadata across centralized (Immich, Firebase) and decentralized (Nostr) systems.
 
-## Phase 0 - Project Setup
+## Phase 1 - Local Storage & Caching
 
-- Flutter project skeleton with config loader
+- Local storage service with SQLite database
-- Testing framework setup
+- CRUD operations for items
-- CI workflow
+- Image caching functionality
+- Comprehensive unit tests

+## Local Storage & Caching
+
+### LocalStorageService
+
+Service for local storage and caching operations located at `lib/data/local/local_storage_service.dart`.
+
+**Usage:**
+
+```dart
+import 'package:app_boilerplate/data/local/local_storage_service.dart';
+import 'package:app_boilerplate/data/local/models/item.dart';
+
+// Initialize service
+final service = LocalStorageService();
+await service.initialize();
+
+// Insert item
+final item = Item(
+  id: 'item-1',
+  data: {'name': 'Test Item', 'value': 123},
+);
+await service.insertItem(item);
+
+// Get item
+final retrieved = await service.getItem('item-1');
+
+// Get all items
+final allItems = await service.getAllItems();
+
+// Update item
+final updated = item.copyWith(data: {'name': 'Updated'});
+await service.updateItem(updated);
+
+// Delete item
+await service.deleteItem('item-1');
+
+// Cache image
+final cachedFile = await service.getCachedImage('https://example.com/image.jpg');
+
+// Clear image cache
+await service.clearImageCache();
+
+// Close service
+await service.close();
+```
+
+**Key Features:**
+- CRUD operations for items stored in SQLite
+- Image caching with automatic download and storage
+- Cache hit/miss handling
+- Modular design - no UI dependencies
+- Easily mockable for testing
+
+### Files
+
+- `lib/data/local/local_storage_service.dart` - Main service class
+- `lib/data/local/models/item.dart` - Item data model
+- `test/data/local/local_storage_service_test.dart` - Unit tests

-## CI/CD
-
-GitHub Actions workflow (`.github/workflows/flutter-ci.yml`) runs on push/PR to `main` or `master` branches:
-
-**Workflow steps:**
-1. **Checkout code** - `actions/checkout@v4`
-2. **Setup Flutter** - Flutter 3.24.0 (stable channel)
-3. **Install dependencies** - `flutter pub get`
-4. **Run tests** - `flutter test`
-5. **Report results** - Success/failure messages
-
-**Commands executed:**
-```bash
-flutter pub get
-flutter test
-```
-
-The workflow runs on Ubuntu latest and reports test results in the GitHub Actions UI.
