Notes
- The web is complicated
- Why are sync engines (LoFi) not getting massive adoption
- Partial sync too hard for users in Replicache’s experience
- Needed because you can’t keep all data locally all the time
- Caching is hard, but 80/20 rule on what you pull data down
- What if you had a query language (YEEEEESSSSS)
- Called Replicache Zero
- Expressed as SQL
- Keeps up to 100MB in device
- “Hybrid search”
- General purpose solution
- Also runs server side and for SSR (it’s just another replica)
- Live demo
- Mssively reduces the amount of code that you have to write
