I wouldn’t say I’ve had horror stories just minor gripes and frustrations. You can mix and match AppKit and UIKit with SwiftUI. So there is always an escape hatch. SwiftUI is insan…

What would the limitations be if one were to create a game engine that could run in the browser? Browsers now have file system access and WebGPU. What would be the major limitation…

Ditto (www.ditto.live) is deployed on all Alaska Airlines, Lufthansa and many other airlines. It also powers point of sale and kitchen systems at Chick fil A. The major thing that …

Do you mean actual databases like MySQL, Postgres, SQLite, MongoDB? Or more user oriented databases like HubSpot, Salesforce CRM, Microsoft Access?

Thanks!! We will make improvements. Our replication system is very complex. I am not sure that even publishing our spec would get much usage because it’s so complex. But maybe we c…

Thank you so much!

We use multihop ad hoc network connections! That’s the BIG thing that we add to the mix!

You hit the nail on the head. We are working on this as a major initiative to solve the problem you detailed. As you can guess the truly decentralized authentication is quite new a…

That’s correct the browser limits us to do automatic discovery sadly. WebBLE support is on our roadmap though! However, if you use Ditto in an electron (and soon Tauri) you’ll be a…

Stay tuned :-)

We are working on this! Give us a bit!
