What it does

A developer-focused tool for sharing small amounts of data via the command-line, using a simple URL interface. Try it via curl!

Textdb should respect your headers, say if you do -H "accept: application/json" it will return json. Likewise, if you do -H "content-type: application/json" when posting, it will validate the json. If you have the data open on your browser, it should live update on writes. Yes, anyone with the link can edit the data. We also just introduced Read Only links, visible in your data link. The source code is at https://github.com/bontaq/textdb if you'd like to check it out. If you would like something, or something is broken, please contact me atfrom textdb.dev

It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
