I've been really interested in the local-first landscape lately but embedding SQLite seems really heavy-weight compared to using the browser's built-in storage APIs (in particular, IndexedDB) and it seems to be what most of the main open source libraries do. I'm interested to see a open-source solution (with sync) which provides an SQLite-like API but for the browser's native storage rather than trying to embed another executable in Web Assembly.

Disclaimer: I'm the author. But you might be interested in TinyBase.

Thanks I'll give it a look! I guess I really was fishing for someone to make a recommendation and I see you have a lot of backend persistence options which I'm very excited about.

Another issue I have with a lot of the new local first products is that they tend to lock you into a particular database type on the backend, so this is refreshing.

TinyBase looks very promising! Is there a doc or reference you can guide me to, for using TinyBase with Preact.js instead of React?
