# Local builds with instant cache sharing (https://depot.dev/changelog/2023-05-17-local-builds)

> Published 2023-05-17

As mentioned, we launched our accelerated local builds with instant cache sharing. It is a huge step forward for developers who want to build their Docker images faster locally and share the layer cache across their team. We've rethought what it means to load an image back after it's built and make [Depot turbo builders](/blog/turbo-builders) available for local builds.

You can read the full details of how we did it and all of the bonus features that come with our new `--load` functionality on our [announcement blog post](/blog/local-builds).
