This is exciting! Especially glad that Litestream is still maintained. Is there a use-case for Litestream for more than backup? I am a fan of offline-first but it would be cool to have a way to synchronize on-device SQLite instances to a single central instance.
- benbjohnson 1y agoBackups & read replicas are the primary use cases. If you're interested in local-first, you can check out projects like cr-sqlite[1]. [1]: https://github.com/vlcn-io/cr-sqlite https://github.com/vlcn-io/cr-sqlite
- j0e1 1y agoThank you Ben for the great work on this project! Also, I remember looking into this one and: https://github.com/vlcn-io/cr-sqlite/issues/444 https://github.com/vlcn-io/cr-sqlite/issues/444
- dankebitte 1y ago> read replicas Can this be done with only Litestream, or is LiteVFS still in development? I looked into this last year but was put off by LiteFS's stated write performance penalty due to FUSE [1]; it's still marked as WIP [2] and hasn't seen updates for over a year.
