Triplit – Open-source syncing database that runs on server and client

Hey HN, we’re Matt and Will, the co-founders of Triplit (https://www.triplit.dev). Triplit is an open-source database (https://github.com/aspen-cloud/triplit) that combines a server-side database, client-side cache, and a sync engine into one cohesive product. You can try it out with a new project by running: (npm|bun|yarn) create triplit-app As a team, we’ve worked on several projects that aspired to the user experience of Linear or Superhuman, where every interaction feels instant like a native app while still having the collaborative and syncing features we…

In plain words

Triplit is an open-source database that integrates server-side storage, client-side caching, and synchronization into a single system. It is designed for developers building web applications that require instant, responsive interactions while maintaining collaborative features and data consistency across users. The database handles local caching strategies, optimistic updates, and sync conflicts automatically, reducing the complexity developers typically manage when building applications with real-time collaboration.

    Muse 2.0 with local-first sync2022 · museapp.com · ▲178

    Hey HN, I want to share with you something I and my four colleagues have been working on for the last several years. It’s a whiteboarding and notes tool called Muse[1]. We just released a 2.0 version which includes local-first sync. A little backstory: I’m one of the authors of the 2019 essay Local-first software[2]. (Past HN discussions[3][4].) The thesis is to reclaim some of the ownership over our data that we’ve lost in the transition from filesystems to cloud/SaaS. So I’m excited to bring CRDT technology “out of the lab” and into a commercial product as a chance to prove the value…

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. 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…
