Key Capabilities

Why SQLite?

What makes SQLite the right choice for modern engineering teams.

Zero Configuration

No server process, no setup — just a file on disk with a full SQL engine.

ACID Transactions

Full ACID compliance with WAL mode for concurrent reads and safe writes.

Cross-Platform

Works identically on iOS, Android, embedded Linux, browsers (WASM), and servers.

Local-First Development

Perfect for offline-first apps and edge databases with Turso/LibSQL.

In-Memory Databases

Spin up temporary in-memory databases for tests with no teardown needed.

Compact Footprint

Under 600KB, making it suitable for IoT devices and resource-constrained environments.

Code Example

SQLite in Action

sqlite-demoDatabase
import Database from 'better-sqlite3';

const db = new Database('app.db');

db.exec(`
  CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS users (
    id    INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT,
    email TEXT UNIQUE NOT NULL,
    name  TEXT NOT NULL,
    created_at TEXT DEFAULT (datetime('now'))
  )
`);

const insert = db.prepare('INSERT INTO users (email, name) VALUES (?, ?)');
const getAll = db.prepare('SELECT * FROM users ORDER BY created_at DESC');

// Transaction for batch insert
const insertMany = db.transaction((users) => {
  for (const u of users) insert.run(u.email, u.name);
});

insertMany([{ email: 'a@b.com', name: 'Alice' }, { email: 'b@b.com', name: 'Bob' }]);

Engagement Models

Three ways to hire SQLite developers

Pick the engagement that matches how you actually work. No multi-year contracts — scale up or down month by month.

Dedicated Developer

Most popular

Full-time SQLite engineer who reports only to you. Best for ongoing products, long-term roadmaps and teams that need a core hire without the HR overhead.

  • 40 hours / week
  • Your Jira, your repo
  • Month-to-month

Hourly / Time & Materials

Pay only for billable hours. Ideal for research spikes, code audits, or variable-load SQLite work where scope is still being discovered.

  • Weekly timesheets
  • Slack-first comms
  • No minimum commit

Fixed-price Milestones

Scoped delivery with clear milestones and acceptance criteria. Best for well-defined SQLite builds like an MVP, a migration or a specific module.

  • Scope locked upfront
  • Milestone acceptance
  • Predictable budget
