sqlite-vss VS mdx

I guess this is an answer to the GitHub issue I opened against SQLite-vss a couple of months ago?

https://github.com/asg017/sqlite-vss/issues/124

Perhaps sqlite-vss? It adds vector searches to sqlite.

Utilizing sqlite-vss to store and query vector embeddings managed by a local SQLite database, Semantify conducts fast, precise vector searches within these embeddings to find and recommend relevant content, ensuring readers are presented with articles that truly match their interests.

Whether you’re navigating through well-known options like SQLite, enriched with the sqlite-vss extension, or exploring other avenues like Chroma, an open-source vector database, selecting the right tool is paramount. This article compares these two choices, guiding you through the pros and cons of each, helping you choose the right tool for storing and querying vector embeddings for your project.

Here is a SQLite extension that uses Faiss under the hood.

Not associated with the project, just love SQLite and find it very useful.

Vector Databases: As your data grows, efficiently searching through millions of vectors can become a challenge. Specialized vector databases like FAISS, Annoy, or Elasticsearch's vector search capabilities can be explored to manage and search through large-scale vector data. Your sentence is grammatically correct. In addition, databases like SQLite and PostgreSQL have extensions, such as sqlite-vss and pgvector, that can be used to store and query vector embeddings, respectively.

I had a go at one of those a few months ago: https://datasette.io/plugins/datasette-faiss

Alex Garcia built a better one here as a SQLite Rust extension: https://github.com/asg017/sqlite-vss

Since the problem domain is that of anomaly detection from constructed request feature embeddings, I wonder if an ANN-search methodology using an embedded database (such as https://github.com/asg017/sqlite-vss or similar) was explored.

As I searched for "sqlite vector plugin" I didn't find any results, before a couple of weeks ago. Two weeks ago I found Alex' SQLite VSS plugin for SQLite. The library was an amazing piece of engineering from an "idea perspective". However, as I started playing around with it, I realised it was ipso facto like "Titanic". Beautiful and amazing, but destined to leak water and sink to the bottom of the ocean because of what we software engineers refers to as "memory leaks".

Semantify was made for content creators, marketers, and anyone looking to enhance their long-form written content. Currently only supporting MDX-based content, It automates the enrichment of MDX blog posts by adding AI-generated Q&A sections that summarize the content, and recommendations for semantically similar posts. This not only makes the content more accessible and engaging but also helps in establishing deeper connections between different posts, ultimately keeping the reader engaged for longer periods.

> We thought this would be a no-brainer and that there would be some CMS/SSG libraries out there that made this Markdown conversion process easy and facilitated integration with any number of frontend frameworks.

You thought correct:

- NextJS MDX integration: https://nextjs.org/docs/pages/building-your-application/conf...

The example above uses react-markdown, but you can use any library you want to render the markdown content. You can also use a transform function to modify the markdown content during the build process. Here is an example that uses MDX to compile the markdown content.

MDX is a js library that allows us to import a markdown file as a react component and use it anywhere.

/blog/ - This directory contains all the markdown files, of your site blogs, you can simply add a new blog by using markdown, or simply remove a blog file by deleting its file, you can combine the markdown with MDX, resulting a well-written blog post.

Hey HN!

This is a little personal project I've been hacking on for the past ~week, somewhat inspired by this blog post [0] ("My Wonderful HTML Email Workflow").

Basically I just wanted an easy way to create email templates in MDX [1] (Markdown + JSX), using React Email [2] components.

It's still a bit of a work in progress (and a bit slow at the moment) but wanted to share in case anyone else finds it interesting!

That’s why formats like Markdown (MD) and MDX (MD with support for JSX) are so popular for use cases like documentation, knowledge bases, or technical blogs. They allow you to use any kind of custom formatting or elements and then process the content for publishing. On top of that, they’re great for implementing a docs-as-code approach, where your documentation lives right beside your code (i.e. in a Git repo).
