Developing with poor internet quality

At my house I am in an internet deadzone.
My apartment has "free wifi" but it's slow and unreliable. I could get faster internet, but my financial situation makes that not very likely any time soon. I also have poor cell signal in my apartment. I make do, but I've been somewhat forced to think more about local-first development. I think it has actually been a boon in disguise because I feel like it helps me develop more resilient apps.
I recently bought a desktop computer with decent specs so I can build a lot of stuff locally and not depend on cloud services. My new ASMR is listening to the fans kick in as it compiles my projects.
