My use case is wanting a git implementation. I don't care about ACID, but I do care a lot about speed, and it absolutely is there 100% for the user's sake. So I feel shit-out-of-luck. Also, I'd rather use JS than wasm, and whatwg-fs/OPFS focused entirely on sync apis, to appease wasm folk who have cumbersome shims they didn't want to deal with.
It's frustrating that the web community first build File System Access, but made a number of design choices compromising performance. Then AccessHandles/whatwg-fs, which unlocks performance, but severely limits it's usability to things users can't really interact with. And only release a sync implementation.
I love the web platform, but this feels so unfortunate.
