Bidirection Replication #307

Open guettli opened 5 years ago

guettli commented 5 years ago

If you want off-line first web applications, the fundamental part is the data.

If the bidirection replication is available, then it is much easier for developers to write offline-first applications.

Of course this could be solved by JS libraries (like PouchDB) but I think a official spec would be better.

What do you think about this?

Talking with many developers, difficulty of reconciling conflicts in a one-size-fits-all way led us to investigating an observer mechanism as a primitive to add to enable sync mechanisms to be constructed.
