RxDB, which stands for Reactive Database, is a JavaScript-based NoSQL database designed for a wide range of applications such as websites, hybrid apps, Electron apps, progressive web apps, and Node.js. The "reactive" aspect of RxDB allows you not only to retrieve the current state of the database but also to subscribe to all changes in the state, including query results or specific fields within a document. This feature is particularly advantageous for real-time user interface applications, as it facilitates development and offers notable performance benefits. Additionally, RxDB can be utilized to build efficient backends in Node.js.

So what about having a stricter separation between data and instructions? Let's look at that using, for example, the Nextcloud AI assistant. Nextcloud-Hub is a self-hosted file storage platform with collaboration tools. It has also an AI Assistant App and guess what, it can summarize text (and much more). I've set it all up with the OpenAI API using the gpt-5-chat-latest model. When I click on any file and... - Source: dev.to / 4 months ago
Nextcloud and ownCloud share a common ancestor. In 2016, Nextcloud's founder (Frank Karlitschek, who also founded ownCloud) forked ownCloud to create Nextcloud, taking most of the developer community with him. Since then, the projects have diverged significantly. - Source: dev.to / 5 months ago
Previously Nextcloud [1], currently bewCloud [2]. Full disclosure: I created bewCloud as a simpler, faster, and modern alternative to Nextcloud. They've allowed me to get my Files (including Photos), Calendars, Contacts, and RSS feeds off of Big Tech. [1] https://nextcloud.com [2] https://bewcloud.com. - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

This is the same energy behind projects like Gaia-X, Nextcloud, and the open-source revival happening across the continent. Itโs not nostalgia for on-prem servers itโs a philosophy: control what you depend on. - Source: dev.to / 9 months ago
Iโm doing offline-first apps at work and want to emphasize that youโre constraining yourself a lot trying to do this. As mentioned, everything fast(ish) is using SQLite under the hood. If you donโt already know, SQLite has a limited set of types, and some funky defaults. How are you going to take this loosey-goosey typed data and store it in a backend database when you sync? What about foreign key... - Source: Hacker News / 12 months ago
> I'm thinking to give it a try in one of my React Native apps that face very uncertain connectivity. Some similar stuff you may want to investigate (no real opinion, just sharing since I've investigated this space a bit): - https://rxdb.info. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago
Looks like it could be a more batteries-included/opinionated alternative to RxDB (https://rxdb.info). The relational queries might help some people who tend to think in SQL as opposed to documents (as in CouchDB or MongoDB) and the WebSockets for synchronization will help people get started more quickly. (RxDB provides interfaces for those who want to implement their own storage engine and/or synchronization... - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago
Some years ago "offline-first" was a thing: https://web.archive.org/web/20170720174332/http://hood.ie/initiatives/#offline-first Primarily based on PouchDB/CouchDB. Now the site redirects to RxDB. https://rxdb.info/ There's still a site by that name but I don't quite understand what's the intention https://offlinefirst.org/. - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago
I'm interested in this problem also! I think there is a large overlap with projects that market/focus on offline-first experiences. AFAIK this problem can be solved by: 1) Considering a client-side copy of the database that gets synced with the remote DB. This is an approach [PowerSync](https://www.powersync.com/) and [ElectricSql](https://electric-sql.com/) and [rxdb](https://rxdb.info/) take! - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago
