Fireproof is taking the lessons of cloujure and Ipfs and applying them to the browser, to create a realtime database that runs anywhere.
As cofounder of Couchbase I got to meet Rich Hickey, whose work was a big inspiration to Fireproof.
Content addressing makes causal consistency easy to implement. We are fast approaching readiness for consistency checks and ACID characterization.
It’s cool to see these ideas that you first conceptualized back at Couch, now becoming reality! I’m familiar with the high level, but not all the details. What lessons from Clojure and IPFS is Fireproof applying to the browser?
