evolu VS corrosion

I made a local-first platform designed for privacy, ease of use, and no vendor lock-in to sync and backup precious data using SQLite and CRDT.

React Hooks library for local-first software with end-to-end encrypted backup and sync using SQLite and CRDT

Couchdb/pouchdb remains one of the best: it's super easy to setup and is production-ready, but it's gonna be json docs with no transactions, so it can be limiting.

Y.js and automerge emerged as solutions combining CRDTs and content transfer, they look really promising. There is a Y.rs version if that's better for you.

I've always dreamt of building something on top of Syncthing, ie something that would use file synchronization. It's more versatile and will definitely last longer than anything else, and it has some built-in capabilities for having a third party helping transport but not being allowed to read content.

I recently came across https://github.com/superfly/corrosion , a service discovery and state management tool that is working completely p2p. CR-SQLite, in particular, allows multiple tables from multiple databases to be merged thanks to CRDTs. I'm sure there's a lot to build on top of it.

I feel like you're not really interested in full p2p but want some centralization point to manage some auth stuff, so I'd investigate couchdb/pouchdb first.

Any thoughts here on Fly's Corrosion? https://github.com/superfly/corrosion

We’re using cr-sqlite as part of our distributed state propagation system. It is indeed easy to bundle in the app!

It would be possible to distribute cr-sqlite changes in many different ways (like you said, http or torrents, etc.) since any change can be applied out of order.
