🎉 TinyBase v6.5.0 - the one with MMKV!

This release includes the new persister-react-native-mmkv module, which allows you to persist data in a React Native MMKV store.

Thanks to @jeremybarbet.bsky.social for the amazing PR, and @mrousavy.com for the awesome library beneath.

Have fun!

For those curious, the core of how it works is github.com/tinyplex/tin... - and the whole implementation is less than 200 lines.

Oh and please let us know if it doesn't work on your browser/OS combo!

🚨 The TinyBase desktop website (finally) has ⌘K search.

But with a twist...

It's built with TinyBase itself 🤯 - managing storage, indexing, and retrieval of page summaries. Everything else is vanilla JS.

(We love Algolia, but love dogfooding even more...)

Hope it's useful!

Huge shoutout to Jakub Riedl for helping on this release. Much more coming! 🙏

🎉 TinyBase v6.0!

Sneaking it out because it's a Friday night! But it's actually a simple release that:

- Only includes modern ESM packages.
- Has React 19 as an optional peer dependency.
- Removes the tools module and TinyBase CLI.

Please let us know how it goes.

Release v6.0.0-beta.3 · tinyplex/tinybase This major release is about updating dependencies and infrastructure rather than adding new features. The most notable changes for users are: The package distribution only includes ESM packages. R...

Here's the likely final beta build of v6.0.

Please give it a whirl before we roll it to the main release this weekend!

RFC: Intentions for TinyBase v6 · tinyplex tinybase · Discussion #220 Hey everyone! Here's what I'm thinking about for v6.0: No new functionality. Rather than a seismic change to everything that makes upgrades harder, my suggestion is to just use v6.0 as a stable bas...

📣 RFC: Intentions for TinyBase v6

If you are using the developer `tools` module, let us know! We're proposing to remove it as a breaking change in v6.

Also see what else is planned: github.com/tinyplex/tin...

Thanks!

Install it with `npm install tinytick`

And let us know how it goes. We love feedback and hope it's useful! 🙏

One canonical use case for smarter task management is for handling multiple network fetches for paginated and nested data.

Read about the rationale for a TinyTick solution in this scenario, for example: tinytick.org/guides/examp...

TinyTick is designed to make that easier.

Specify your tasks imperatively, ahead of time, and then configure their schedules, timeouts, and retry sequences - and let it take care of everything for you.

Oh, and as a bona fide member of the 'tiny family', it's only 1.8kB 😎

🎉 Welcome to our new sister project: TinyTick!

Most intelligent and local-first web applications need background tasks like fetching, syncing, and cache eviction.

But managing them - with scheduling, failure handling, retries, and so on - can be a pain.

This is blowing my mind. I have a feeling @tinybase.bsky.social might work for this with its Durable Object support. I might need to investigate 🕵️‍♂️

Now make it work local first 😎

Here’s a beginner-friendly tutorial on building a Local-First App with @expo.dev, @tinybase.bsky.social, and @cloudflare.social!

In this video, you’ll learn how to:
✅ Install and use TinyBase to manage simple todo records.
✅ Create and deploy a Durable Object to sync data seamlessly.

Kids Finance Tracker Waitlist

It's built with @tinybase.bsky.social tables syncing to @cloudflare.social durable objects. @tanstack.com Start for the app, @hono.dev for the API. Goal is to be local first, PWA.

It's a side project but I'm building it for others to use. Waitlist (it's not ready yet, clearly): tally.so/r/3yj9Pp

Correct.

1) The CRDT metadata (hash and timestamp) need to be understood in the plain by the synchronizers at each end.

2) The ‘envelope’ of the sync messages (from/to client IDs, transaction IDs) need to be read in the clear by the server to broker things.

Yes. There’s an API for getting the ‘MergeableContent’ out of a MergeableStore as JSON and applying it back into another.

(i.e. all without the negotiation/sync protocol)

Is that what you mean?

Guess you could encrypt and decrypt at a cell-by-cell level in the app, but otherwise this would need a few new extension points.

Yes, it’s basically a giant CRDT that can be resolved deterministically with another at any later time.

Could we have helped you find the bug quicker?

TinyBase The reactive data store for local-first apps.

So in my app you can store your recipes, or your noughts and crosses games and all in a single data store thanks to @tinybase.bsky.social. User can keep it in localStorage or move it to the cloud.

We’ll take “slick as heck”! 🙏

Let us know about anything you need it to do that it doesn’t!

Would’ve had my DO project far along if I wasn’t stuck moving while having a stomach bug, 2025 is gonna rock tho 🙏

🎆 Happy New Year!

2024 saw TinyBase gain a fully-fledged sync system with CRDTs & reconciliation protocol. We added Postgres & PGLite support. And don’t forget the magical CloudFlare Durable Objects integration!

2025 is going to be amazing. Thank you, as ever, for your passionate support 🙏

🎄 Merry Christmas!

As my grand finale for 2024, here’s my video on building a local-first shopping list app using @expo.dev, @tinybase.bsky.social, @clerk.com, and @cloudflare.social.

You can check out a live demo on the App Store or explore the deployed web version. ↓

I’m super excited to share a sneak peek of my upcoming video, which will cover building a real-world, universal, local-first app using @tinybase.bsky.social with real-time sync powered by @cloudflare.social DOs, @clerk.com for authentication, @expo.dev Router, and Expo Go.
