What Hacker News says
2 sourcesNicely done!
I like the small codebase with no dependencies - I imagine it's easy to start using. Also appreciate the extensive query interface and documentation.
It reminds me of NeDB in Node.js world, which has proven its worth to me on several occasions when I needed a simple JSON-based database for a small(ish) audience, with mostly read operations (which are served from memory). They're running for literally years with no issue at all.
