Packages such as dexie.js provide a convenient wrapper around it and tools such as manics/jupyter-offlinenotebook can use it to persist items in the browser from otherwise transient web application sessions, such as MyBinder powered Jupyter notebook sessions. IndexedDB is a NoSQL storage solution that is supported inside contemporary browsers. In the case of sql.js, the minimal demo UI does not persist the database, nor provide any means for saving and reusing queries: it is just a minimal, temporary UI. But there is another huge issue that is perhaps currently a blocker for using in-browser apps in an educational setting: if you edit content in the app – for example, a SQL query you spent ages crafting – you lose it when you close the web page: there is nowhere you can save it to and then reload it, nowhere you can persist it, unless you export it / downlad it to the desktop, and then import it / upload it from the desktop next time you run the application.

Fortunately, applications such as v make it possible to run a webserver in your web browser to serve content held locally by uploading it to the browser and serving it from there:įor running simple applications, installing something like v as an app so you can run it offline is really handy when it comes to not requiring a user to run their own webserver.

there is no requirement on the provider to provide a code execution server: a static web server is all that is required to provide the environment to the user.Ī Brief Aside – Serving Webpages Locally Without a Webserverįor purely local running, there may be requirement for the the user to run a local webserver to serve the environment: if you double click an HTML file on your desktop and open it in a broweser with a URL starting file://, the browser may well throw CORS (cross-origin) security errors as it tries to load the page.

there is no requirement on the user to install any software on their desktop: all they need is a web browser, a network connection to download the environment, and a powerful enough computer to run the application in the browser.

If you want to try it out, there’s a simple demo page here:Īpplications moving off-the-server and into the browser is really handy in many educational contexts because it means: Databases can be loaded from an uploaded file, or retrieved from a remote URL. The sql.js package provides a WASM compiled version of SQLite that runs purely in the browser.

Several ways of working with SQLite in the browser exist the following does not claim to be a complete list, just a representative sample, and includes: In this post, I’ll review a couple of WASM compiled databses that you can run purely within a browser: SQLite and Duck.db. It worked as a general SQL database client, or could be used to manage and query a SQLite database powered by sql.js.

Several years ago, in a post on Asking Questions of CSV Data, Using SQL In the Browser, I described a rather nifty application called franchise, (from the repo, it seems to have been deprecated for some time, or at least, is no longer actively maintained there).
