Introducing: SQLite3 support in WebContainers! 🧪

WebContainers has introduced experimental support for SQLite3, enabling developers to use SQL databases in browser-based environments, expanding the potential for creating applications that require both read and write capabilities within the browser. This feature, highly requested by users, facilitates the development of applications like to-do apps and authentication systems by allowing database integration directly in the browser using Node-based toolchains. Developers can use SQLite3 by installing it via npm and integrating it with frameworks like Express or ORMs such as Sequelize. The database can be configured to either re-create with each project load, ideal for demos, or persist across sessions by placing the database file in specific directories, although the latter requires a member-only feature for uploading binary files. While this SQLite support is experimental and doesn't encompass all features of the original node-sqlite3 project, it represents a promising tool for prototyping and developing new applications within the browser, with the team encouraging feedback and experimentation from the community.
