A tiny promise-based key-value store library built on top of IndexedDB for browsers. It offers a minimal get/set/del API in under 600 bytes, storing any structured-clonable value.
Use cases
- store data in the browser without localStorage limits
- persist blobs and structured objects client-side
- simple offline storage for a web app
- replace localStorage with async promise-based storage
- cache API responses in the browser
When to choose
- you need a tiny, tree-shakeable IndexedDB wrapper with a simple keyval API
- you want to store structured-clonable values like Blobs and Dates
- your target browsers have working IndexedDB support
When to avoid
- you need indexes, iteration, or complex queries - use the idb library instead
- you must support old browsers with broken IndexedDB - use localForage
- you need a full database with relations or SQL
