The LOCAL file extension is basically used as a user-specific options file in a Delphi project.
More about Delphi
Delphi is a general-purpose programming language that uses the 'tropicalized' Object Pascal programming language for Delphi.
Broadly speaking, it is an integrated development environment (IDE) for rapid development of desktop, mobile, web, and console software applications, currently developed and maintained by Embarcadero Technologies.
The LOCAL file has custom options of the user or programmer, which he has preset for a purpose.

More about Paket
Package is a dependency manager for .NET projects and Mono projects.
Paket is designed to work well with NuGet packages and also allows you to reference files directly from Git repositories or any HTTP resource.
Paket enables precise and predictable control over any dependencies.
The package.local file is used to test changes before releasing a new version of a dependent project.
