I knew I remember your name working with something of sqlite and golang https://github.com/ncruces/go-sqlite3 Man I really enjoy golang and cross portability and wazero + sqlite could still be cross portable which is super fascinating What are your thoughts on https://github.com/electric-sql/pglite (postgres in wasm)? Also what were the goal behind a pure golang solution via wazero + wasm sqlite as you had made? Was it cross platform support, if so, what are your thoughts on zig, I have seen a project use zig + golang to create cross platform C language support but I think that adding zig into the picture complicates the build process so there are tradeoffs and I am interested to hear your opinions about it!
