May I ask if filters can only be connected to the official backend for use? If cached locally, can it be used without internet connection？

I don't quite understand the principle of the lenses, is this part of the content closed source by Inc company?

Snap Camera was designed to require a server, although the logic for displaying the lenses is done completely offline by the app.

The Docker server that emulates the original server can be used locally on your own computer without an active internet connection.

Thank you so much! Is there a way to start this project locally without using Docker?
