This is really cool. Feels like the future of app development. But also I’m getting old, and I had the same feeling when RethinkDB came out. Do you guys have any thoughts on how your system compares to what they were doing and what eventually happened to them?

I can't speak to RethinkDB's history but we're really focused on a specific use case which I think helps. Specifically, Triplit is made for web developers so we have great TS support, React and Svelte bindings, etc which makes adoption and marketing much easier.

  Any plans to add Vue.js support?

    Yep! We've just prioritized based on what's been requested in our Discord and surprisingly Svelte has been requested a lot more than Vue so we did that first but Vue is on the way.

Cant wait for new PHP, in the sense we can stuff hundreds of apps (with dbs) in the filesystem and it takes negligible CPU if idle.

RethinkDB was actually pretty good from memory, a little underbaked but expected for a new DB. I think they also kind of just lost out on the marketing war with MongoDB at the time.
