SQLRite – SQLite clone from scratch in Rust

If this can reach production quality, could we start considering webSQL again? IndexedDB leaves a lot to be desired.

As much as I wanted to see SQLite included in browsers, Mozilla made the right call.

You can run SQLite in the browser now using Wasm.

I might agree in principle, but the results are objectively worse for developers and users.

They should have taken the time to make a new generation of SQL with improved syntax and ergonomics. Instead, we got something that requires complex boilerplate to do simple things with gaping flaws and almost completely devoid of features (all of this while still being built on top of sqlite).

So Google said, "lets just include SQLite" and Mozilla pushed back and said that isn't a spec. Which is correct.

Who does the work?

I wouldn't mind partnering up with Mozilla on this. Hey Mozilla!!!
