Local to a webpage, do you feel building wrapper over indexedDB instead of sqlite would be better idea?

That's a great way to accomplish local storage, but requires a bit of gymnastics to build sync. By controlling the database entirely, SQLSync can provide very ergonomic sync to the developer and performance for the user.

So it's not that one is better than the other. Just the capabilities, performance, and test-ability differs.
