Turso SQLite Offline Sync Public Beta

You raise an interesting point, that along with the replies, compels me to note that all of this stuff is bespoke, and things that sound simple like "I just want a good syncing library" are intractable in practice.

Ex. if I'm doing a document-based app, users can have at it, corrupt their own data all they want.

I honestly cannot wrap my mind around discussions re: SQLite x web dev, perhaps because I've been in mobile dev: but I don't even know what it'd mean to have an "offline-first forum" that syncs state: it's a global object with shared state rendered on the client.

When you set aside the implications introduced by using a hack scenario, a simpler question emerges: How would my clients sync the whole forum back to the cloud? Generally, my inclination is to handwave about users being able to make posts and have it "just work", after all, can't Turo help with simple scenarios like a posts table that has a date column? That makes it virtually conflict free...but my experience is "virtually" bites you, hard.
