Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

persistent storage API on Firefox temporary extension
You can use File System Standard https://fs.spec.whatwg.org/ to write data for that origin (Firefox doesn't implement File System Access API, nonetheless a File object can still be written to local disk using File API).

I spent two years building a desktop environment that runs in the browser, it's finally in beta!
Both Firefox and Chromium (Chrome) have implemented WHATWG File System Standard.

SQLite WASM in the Browser Backed by the Origin Private File System
Can you just slow down for a moment and focus on what you said?

As others have pointed out the standard is here:
https://fs.spec.whatwg.org/
> - considered harmful by other browser vendors
It is literally being drafted in conjunction by all the major browsers.

So what? I for one am thankful that Chromium enables features earlier than other browsers. If you don't want the Chromium implementation then don't use it.

Show HN: I built a WASI playground for running CLI binaries in the browser
Score another point for memfs, the in-memory node.js fe impl.
WHATWG recently took up File System Access spec as their FS spec. It both looks semi promising, but they seem to only care about & are only building specs for specifically emscripten wasm users. Only sync apis, only usable from dedicated workers... there's some hopes for more latter but feels super weird to see the web finally get fs access & have it be fast... but for it to be extremely odd shaped hand tailored to a very narrow class of use.

WASM SQL database recommendations wanted
Not really, but I'm aware of absurd-sql. Note that this requires IndexedDB and thus a browser environment.

Best local database that works on all platforms including web?
I don't need SQL capabilities, so I didn't look into those options (there's also absurd-sql, which ports sqlite to the browser on top of IndexedDB).

SQLite WASM in the Browser Backed by the Origin Private File System
Ironically I was just about to drop in absurd-sql [1] to a project, which uses indexeddb to back SQLite. This seems better.

Irmin in the Browser (OCaml/MirageOS)
There is also absurd-sql that is sqlite3 in wasm using IndexDB as storage and it’s faster than IndexDB itself

Postgres WASM by Snaplet and Supabase
Offline data: running it in the browser for an offline cache, similar to sql.js or absurd-sql.

We are very close to having WASM SQLite with persistence in the web platform. Until now SQLite compiled to WASM was in memory and you had to write the whole database out as a binary array to save changes. There is absurd-sql (https://github.com/jlongster/absurd-sql), which builds a virtual file system on top of IndexedDB for sqlite, its incredible, but a bit of an ugly hack.
However, the new file-access apis (https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/File_System...) that are landing in browsers will fix this. One of the things it does is enable very efficient block level read/write access to a privet sandboxed filesystem for the websites origin, perfect for persistent sqlite. There is more here: https://web.dev/file-system-access/#accessing-files-optimize...
