Maybe

Those are idea for very long term with 0 promesse, maybe as extension.

  • Web interface: Similare to EdgeDB, getting a webapp to query and config the DB.
  • HTTP server: Be able to start a simple HTTP server and send json.
  • Auth: Be able to auth users, maybe third-party OAuth.
  • Per user database: Like Turso.
  • Performace: I'm sure I can do better.
  • Client side database: Run it on the client side with WASM.
