015 - James Long on ActualBudget

<p>Rafael is Joined by James Long to talk about ActualBudget, a "privacy focused" personal finance application with some unique technical characteristics. They talk about some of the benefits of offline-first applications from a product perspective, and some of the interesting and unexpected things about developing an application that diverges from the standard Server-Client SaaS model. They also go deep into the weeds to talk about absurd-sql, a project where sqlite is implemented using indexedDB instead of the filesystem as a persistence layer.<br> <br> James Long on twitter: https://twitter.com/jlongster<br> Actual Budget: https://actualbudget.com/ <br> Patrick McKenzie: https://twitter.com/patio11<br> The blog post about absurd-sql: https://jlongster.com/future-sql-web<br> LogSeq: https://logseq.com/<br> Yjs: https://github.com/yjs/yjs</p>
