RethinkDB VS developer-roadmap

I've been poking around, testing and breaking database servers for a long time (more than 20 years today). But a few years ago I came across a jewel, the grail, one of the best solutions available. Under the radar, shunned for whatever reason, RethinkDB is nonetheless one of the finest database server projects I've ever tested.

RethinkDB[0] looks like a "too good to be true" type of database. Anyone using it in production? What is your experience like? What are the pros and cons?

Since you’re not new to the field you might want to peek https://rethinkdb.com/ since it got picked up as an open source project.

No I don't think that's relevant. They implement their own btree it seems [0].

They don't use a key-value store library.

I know it's a bit of a fine line. But I'm talking about standalone libraries people embed across different applications/databases. That's what RocksDB/LevelDB/Pebble are.

A Data Objects represents data which can be saved inside a database. This concept is in the heart of SQLAlchemy, but as the name should be obvious: it's for SQL Database (in general). Today, there are now document databases too (like MongoDB, ArangoDB, RethinkDB that I love so much, or even PostgreSQL). So, a "data" is like a "structured and typed document" that you save "as is". That's not the same paradigm, not the same controls. There are advantages and disadvantages, but we won't debate that here.

There are multiple ways to share data between two (or more) instances of your app: - you can use a shared storage, such as Cloud Firestore, - you can build your own backend (based on a real-time database, such as RethinkDB), - or you can rely on local communication using the Multipeer framework you linked.

Learning the basics of web development opens doors to many other careers in the tech field.  Roadmap.sh provides guides, learning paths, and roadmaps to point developers in a direction of their choosing.

There's a website I personally follow specific for roadmaps called as “roadmap.sh” where all the roadmaps are available. You can check it out, if you like. Here's the link: ▶️ https://roadmap.sh/

If you're starting your journey in web development, here is a roadmap to follow. Understand that Web development is not merely an extension of programming; it's a distinct field that requires a unique blend of coding and visual design skills. Embrace the importance of visual aesthetics from the get-go, and continuously work on improving your design sense. Trust me it will pay off in the long run, and you'll be able to create truly exceptional web experiences that not only function well but also look and feel amazing.

It may also be beneficial to start with a high-level overview of what there is to learn in a given area, to understand the overall lay of the land - and then use ChatGPT to dig deeper into selected topics. There are many good resources that provide such an overview, like roadmap.sh or my "Definitive Guide to Succeeding as a Professional Dev".
