When developing for Azure storage accounts, I can run the Microsoft Storage Emulator to locally keep Blobs, Queues, and Tables without having to connect to Azure online.
Is there something equivalent for the Azure Data Lake Store? It would be nice to develop locally for a while without having to connect to Azure online.

The initialization process creates a database in LocalDB and reserves HTTP ports for each local storage service. The storage emulator is installed by default to C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Azure\Storage Emulator. You can use the Microsoft Azure Storage Explorer to work with local storage emulator resources.
The emulator provides cross-platform support on Windows, Linux, and macOS. Azurite is the future storage emulator platform. Azurite supersedes the Azure Storage Emulator. Azurite will continue to be updated to support the latest versions of Azure Storage APIs.
Version 2013-08-15 of the Azure storage services is now fully supported. (Previously this version was only supported by Storage Emulator version 2.2.1 Preview.) Evaluate the cross-platform, community-maintained open-source Storage Emulator Azurite.
You can test your application against the storage services locally without creating an Azure subscription or incurring any costs. When you're satisfied with how your application is working in the emulator, switch to using an Azure storage account in the cloud.
Have you tried Visual Studio with the Azure Data Lake Tools plug-in?

As pointed out by David, you can develop Azure Data Lake Analytics (ADLA) projects locally without needing connectivity to Azure for the ADLA account or the associated Azure Data Lake Store (ADLS) account. Is there some other application you would like to use with ADLS?
