Not sure why the comparisons were made with pretty outdated versions to be honest. I‘m using a (older) v1.29.1 dev version with https://sql-workbench.com w/o any bigger issues. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 month ago

Have a look at https://sql-workbench.com eventually. It runs DuckDB WASM in the browser, and with Perspective, which is used for data visualization, you can also visualize timeseries. You can either drag & drop data, or use remote data sources via https. - Source: Hacker News / about 2 months ago

Have a look at https://sql-workbench.com eventually, as it's using DuckDB WASM & Perspective to render the query results. Let me know what you think! - Source: Hacker News / about 2 months ago

I created https://sql-workbench.com a while ago, mainly to let people analyze data that's available via http sources, or on their local machines, w/o having to install anything. A recent project is https://shrink.video, which is using the WASM version of ffmpeg to shrink or convert video in the user's browser itself, for privacy and similar reasons mentioned before. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

Looks impressive! Using the VFS is such a fun "hack" :) We developed our own sync engine for an offline-first IDE for notes/tasks [1] we're building, where the data structure is a tree (or graph actually) to support outlining operations. Conflict resolution is always the challenge, and especially with trees multiple offline players can optimistically commit local changes which would result in an invalid tree state... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 month ago

We've built a sync engine from scratch. Our app is a multiplayer "IDE" but for tasks/notes [1], so it's important to have a fast local first/office experience like other editors, and have changes sync in the background. I definitely believe sync engines are the future as they make it so much easier to enable things like no-spinners browsing your data, optimistic rendering, offline use, real-time collaboration and... - Source: Hacker News / about 2 months ago

Another aspect of local-first I'm exploring is trying to combine it with the ability to make the backend sync server available for local self-hosting as well. In our case we're building a local-first multiplayer "IDE for tasks and notes" [1] where the syncing or "cloud" component adds features like real-time collaboration, permission controls and so on. Local-first ensures the principles mentioned in the article... - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

We're building Thymer [1] for this, which is end-to-end encrypted, offline-first and optionally self-hostable. It's like an editor but you can organize anything into custom database views, we hope to get it ready soon. [1] https://thymer.com/. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

Thymer[1] uses CRDTs for everything. It's an IDE for tasks and planning. It's a multiplayer app, end-to-end encrypted and offline first, optionally self-hosted, and an entire workspace is a single graph. So CRDTs were the logical choice. All operations in Thymer get reduced to a handful of CRDT transformations. Although this was a lot of extra work up front (we're not using any libraries) the benefits make it... - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago
