Agree with the author, will add: duckdb is an extremely compelling choice if you’re a developer and want to embed analytics in your app (which can also run in a web browser with wasm!)
Think this opens up a lot of interesting possibilities like more powerful analytics notebooks like marimo (https://marimo.io/) … and that’s just one example of many.
We recently created a survey website for the community survey results for Node-RED making it completely dynamic and segment-able. Creates lots of value and allows everyone to look at the data through their own lens. It uses DuckDB with WASM under the hood. Awesome technologies.
I'd really love a minimalist version, I'm not sure how small it's feasible for them to shrink it. As long as it doesn't get bigger and devices keep getting faster, I suppose?
