I'm very interested in apps without a backend. Unfortunately, localStorage has an upper limit that prevents you from storing large amounts of data.

This database actually uses localStorage as a storage adapter of sorts, so I've encountered this issue first hand.

Yeah, the ~5MB limit for localStorage is definitely the biggest limitation you have to work around. That's a cool project, I hadn't heard of that before. Thanks for sharing!
