I'm getting increasing conviction around the idea of using sync engines instead of APIs for building apps The idea is simple: - apps read and write to a local db or object - a sync engine keeps this magically synced with server db - sync is designed to be conflict free (using crdts or similar)

Currently taking this approach with a desktop-only app. Simply upload/download the entire SQLite db, keep latest copy. Dumb but works well. Of course when I add support for large files (i.e. PDFs) this will need a rethink.
