Lawnchair is a lightweight clientside JSON document store for JavaScript, providing simple key/document persistence in the browser. It abstracts over various storage backends with a minimal, pluggable API.
Use cases
- store documents in the browser
- persist app data client-side without a server
- simple key-value storage for a web app
- offline storage for mobile web apps
- cache data locally in javascript
When to choose
- you need a tiny, dependency-free client-side JSON store for a legacy or simple web project
- you want a pluggable abstraction over browser storage backends
When to avoid
- starting a new modern project - use IndexedDB wrappers like Dexie, localForage, or the native Storage APIs instead
- you need querying, indexing, or relational features
- you need actively maintained software with security updates
