   directory tree is not as easy to view and edit as JSON. One big JSON file is harder. I am not fancy, and the aim is to simply use file system as database. Not fancy stuff like "database as file system as database".

   Isn't WinFS the reverse of "file system as database"? Which is "database as file system".

   That all can be achieved by using file system as database. Not even complicated to implement. See couchDB for how to handle "what if two people are editing a file at once".

    JSON is there for human to read a record of data by group. I think it is only good to use directory as data table to store JSON data files, but not for JSON data properties.

    Inode limits depends on the file system you use. I am using Btrfs. Btrfs inode limits is in a whole different league (whereas ext4's inodes are allocated at filesystem creation time and cannot be resized after creation, typically at 1-

    Thanks for the link. I read it, and I think it describes bad ways of using file system, but there are also good ways. Just like there are bad ways of using SQL databases, and there are also NoSQL, and bad ways of using NoSQL databases.

    So that I can use subdirectory to model "has many" relationship, like "a user has many projects".

    I think, unless column-oriented database is used, "one file per row" is similar to normal row-oriented database. Maybe there are some benchmarks in the past.

    Why not use one JSON file as one record of data, and use pathname as primary ID?

    @jqpabc123 I agree. We (developers) should also design tools to address the need of small scale web apps. Maybe, we do not even need some general tools to use file system as database, just speak this method more often.

    I enjoy the criticism, I think I can learn things from them. So far, feedback here are helpful to me. Sorry about the mis-deleting.

    Sorry about that, I was migrating my websites and repo out of vercel (to use this tool), during which I deleted a lot of outdated github repos. I thinks I accidently deleted this repo. Now it is back: https://github.com/xiey
