-Project Title: High performance backend for IndexedDB in Node.JS with TypeScript
-
-Prerequisites: Basic knowledge of JavaScript/TypeScript, basic familiarity
-with relational and non-relational databases. Familiarity with SQL and
-node.js is a plus.
-
-IndexedDB is the standardized transactional database system for the Web
-platform. Progressive Web applications and browser extensions use IndexedDB to
-manage large amounts of structured data.
-
-While IndexedDB is supported by a significant majority of browsers currently in
-use, support for IndexedDB in JavaScript applications outside of the browser is
-severely lacking. This makes it difficult to write applications that use
-persistent transactional data storage and can run both in the browser and on
-other platforms such as Node.JS.
-
-The standardized API of IndexedDB is relatively small and simple when compared
-to SQL dialects, and as such it is relatively simple to write an implementation
-of IndexedDB.
-
-The idb-bridge package (developed as part of the GNU Taler project) already
-provides a TypeScript/Node.JS implementation of the IndexedDB API with a single
-JSON file as a backend. However, this implementation suffers from major
-performance issues and does not support concurrent access.
-
-The goal of this project is to design, implement and benchmark a new storage
-backend for IndexedDB in TypeScript based on the existing bridge-idb project.
-A potential candidate for the improved storage backend is SQLite3, but other
-choices (such as LevelDB) can be evaluated as well.
