Why is this a cloud service instead of a local emulator? I don't get it

We are both! The cloud service is for everyone to try right now. We have a paid local license version too.

But we started as local only however quickly learned thag cloud has a few advantages. we can have seamless github integration setup for people. And quite a few people prefer when things just work with a setup on every commit!

Convenience of the cloud or you can setup yourself with developer license.
