To set the tone for 2024, we're kicking January off with a fresh release of Electric that introduces a whole slew of improvements to the experience of configuring, deploying, and developing with Electric.
One of the most common questions we get asked about developing on ElectricSQL and local-first in general is how to do secure, confirmed transactions like bookings and payments.
Version 0.8 of ElectricSQL has now been released. This release improves data model and deployment compatibility, including support for JSON and running on popular managed Postgres and, such as Supabase and Digital Ocean.
Introducing Electric Appointments, a demo mobile app built with the Ionic Framework and Capacitor.

Introducing the v0.6 release of ElectricSQL. A local-first sync layer that you can use to build reactive, realtime, offline-capable apps directly on Postgres.
Electric is now backed by Andrei Miulescu and Oleksii Sholik has joined us as a Founding Engineer.
Local-first software is the natural evolution of state-transfer. It enables a modern, realtime multi-user experience, with built in offline support, resilience, privacy and data ownership.
José Valim, the creator of Elixir, distributed systems expert Kevin De Porre and startup engineering veteran Garry Hill have joined Electric.
Web development has been progressing through an evolution of state transfer. Local-first is the natural endgame and the vision we're working towards with Electric.
In this post we explore the assumptions that distributed databases are based on and investigate how causal consistency fits the reality of a relativistic universe.

Rich-CRDTs are conflict-free data types (“CRDTs”) extended to provide additional (“Rich”) database guarantees. These guarantees, such as constraints and referential integrity, make building local-first applications much simpler.
