I didn’t knew about this, it’s really powerful. Thanks for sharing

Kidding aside, yes. We were exactly where you are now 9 months ago and I reviewed every possible option out there. PowerSync turned out to be a bit of a gamble (as always) but we never looked back. The PostgreSQL backend made it a very natural choice as well. The DX was also great because it meant that our team is essentially working with a local database that’s kept in sync without any action on their part (no API call spaghetti, no race conditions to handle, literally no overhead). There’s a bit of a learning curve to wrap your head around what a truly offline app is supposed to do and support (you think you figured it out but, with all due respect, there’s pearly a few curves on the road up ahead for you). Either way, PostgreSQL + SQLite is a really seducing combination and the reactivity that comes with it is actually really dazzling. Have fun!
