That's pretty insane, what does that mean in terms of data storage? Does everyone get a copy of the data locally or is it fetched on the fly?

Both? So for the tutorials they use a SQL initialization file stored in a GIST (our solution, but can be stored at any public storage url) and it loads that data and any other SQL setup commands in that file on startup to the database that exists in your local browser session only.
