Dexie

Dexie is a minimalistic wrapper library for IndexedDB, a low-level browser-based database API for storing structured data. It simplifies IndexedDB usage by providing a promise-based API, automatic schema management, and built-in error handling, making it easier to work with client-side storage in web applications. It is designed to be lightweight, fast, and developer-friendly, reducing the complexity of direct IndexedDB interactions.

Also known as: Dexie.js, DexieJS, Dexie IndexedDB, Dexie wrapper, Dexie library
🧊Why learn Dexie?

Developers should learn and use Dexie when building web applications that require robust client-side data storage, such as offline-first apps, progressive web apps (PWAs), or tools needing local caching and synchronization. It is particularly useful for scenarios where you need to manage large datasets in the browser without relying on server-side databases, offering better performance and user experience by enabling data persistence and quick access.
