BlinkDB Logo

BlinkDB is a in-memory JS database optimized for large scale storage on the frontend. 

import { many } from "blinkdb";

const items = await many(userTable, {
  where: {
    name: { in: ["Alice", "Charlie"] },
    age: { gt: 24 },
  },
});

BlinkDB is not yet mature. If you aren't convinced with the current feature set, check back in version 1.0.0.

Motivation

Today, SPAs and modern UI frameworks are more complex than ever before, and in the biggest codebases, gigantic amounts of data are used in JS directly. Unfortunately, while user-friendly, the existing solutions - stores like Redux or MobX - are not optimized for performance with large quantities of entities.

Description

BlinkDB provides an alternative - a strongly optimized in-memory database for your frontend. With database features such as indexes, query optimization and support for both relational & non-relational data, BlinkDB allows you to query your data with filters, sort and paginate in one go - just like a real database, and just as performant (as far as a database can be in Javascript).
