Explain what are the differences and advantages compared to RxDB

[etienned]

Sorry, it's not a real issue, but it's the only way I found to ask. So, what are the main differences between RxDB and ClientDB? What are the main advantages of clientDB over RxDB?

Thanks

In many ways it is similar. A few differences I did notice:

• all operations in clientdb are sync (in-memory) vs async/await for RxDB
• clientdb includes sync server (work in progress sync-engine #10 ) that handles syncing any server with any client (and is not constrained to couchdb, etc)
• there are no constrains on soft-deletes
• clientdb server can track lost permissions syncing (eg. you set is_disabled on some of team memberships and given member will receive sync request to remove all team assets)
• there are bunch of API choices, but this is matter of preference

Thanks Adam for this info! I'll keep following your project.

Maybe you should put this info somewhere in your docs.
