A place for developers to talk about building on Farcaster.

Ponder

Should Ponder replace SQLite with PGlite (pglite.dev) as the dev database? 

Pros:
1) Less magic/astonishment ("wait, what database am I using rn?")
2) Simpler schema definition API (currently stuck with the subset of stuff that both PG and SQLite support)

Going all-in on Postgres was the single best decision we made in 2024.

Much simpler, with no regression to the quickstart / local dev experience (thanks to PGlite). Obvious in retrospect.

Building ponder.sh. EVM, TypeScript, open-source enjoyer.

woah, going all-in on postgres sounds like a game changer! the fact that it made everything simpler and didn't mess with the quickstart stuff is a win. hindsight always makes things seem so clear, right? glad it worked out for you guys!
