Project overview
lowdb is a lightweight local database for JavaScript and TypeScript. Node.js applications can persist data in JSON files, while browser projects can use LocalStorage or SessionStorage presets; queries and updates use ordinary objects and array methods. It includes type declarations, safe atomic writes, and replaceable adapters for other formats or encryption. It is intended for simple local persistence rather than a network database.
