Dbxlite – Query 100M+ rows in a browser tab, no install

    SQLite query inside a Bash function2021 · ▲134

    Part of the workflow for building my website is the generation of a table in tab-separated column format (.tsv). The source data is found in four other .tsv files. I use an SQLite query to perform a 4-way join and write out the new table. For convenience, I wrote a script that encapsulates the query inside a Bash function. The example below illustrates this technique. repertoire() { pushd $CMM_SOURCES&#x2F;_data sqlite3 <<EOS .headers on .mode tabs .import category.tsv category .import composition.tsv composition .import concert.tsv concert .import program.tsv program .once repertoire.tsv…

    DuckDB + React = SQLRooms Framework for Analytics Apps Without Backend2025 · sqlrooms.org · ▲9

    We’ve built SQLRooms, an open-source framework for creating single-node data analytics apps powered by DuckDB. It lets you build fully client-side, data-centric apps using React and DuckDB running in the browser (via WebAssembly) or in Electron. No server or backend is required — apps can work offline, preserve data privacy, and run queries on large datasets with sub-second performance. Features: - Query large datasets in browser with DuckDB (WASM) - Modular design for building composable data UIs (query editors, dashboards, notebooks, etc.) - Data privacy-preserving AI assistant that can…

    Community, All the HN belong to you. This is an archive of hacker news that fits in your browser. When I made HN Made of Primes I realized I could probably do this offline sqlite&#x2F;wasm thing with the whole GBs of archive. The whole dataset. So I tried it, and this is it. Have Hacker News on your device. Go to this repo (https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;DOSAYGO-STUDIO&#x2F;HackerBook): you can download it. Big Query -> ETL -> npx serve docs - that's it. 20 years of HN arguments and beauty, can be yours forever. So they'll never die. Ever. It's the unkillable static archive of HN and it's…
