Porting LevelDB[1] to Seastar[2], for internal metadata storage in Redpanda[3]. Before you ask why canāt something off the shelf be used, seastar has unique constraints around its runtime and its memory allocator that means we canāt reuse an existing library.

Meet Spuddy š„
The real-time sync of Spuddy is currently powered by a manual deployment of y-websocket-server on Fly.io. It's annoying to manage, as y-websocket-server depends on a seldom used DB - leveldb, which doesn't have much tooling around it. Moreover, as this is YJS, and I am using React, I had to roll my own hooks & integration from React to YJS - all of it is fairly ugly code.
