Best offline&local database to use with electron?
Not quite a database, but I use electron-store for persistent storage. It has a super simple API, and it stores data in a config.json file that’s mostly hidden from the user unless they know where to look.

Something like mongoose in electron?

What is the proper way to permanently store data in Electron in 2023?
I've seen electron-store, but it seems to be a volatile store. Each time I open the app, it seems I must create a new Store(). The doc explains clearly how to perform crud operation in a new store, but not how to retrieve existing data when re-opening the app 10 days later. If the lib can actually do it, how to do so?

Question about data persistence within electron app
With Electron, you have disk access via Node.js (fs.writeFile, etc), so you can save user preferences to the user's hard drive. See https://github.com/sindresorhus/electron-store for a library that makes it super easy and provides you with some nice conventions for working with the file system from an Electron app.
