I love how sqlite just keeps popping up every now and then. Folks at Turso DB are also doing some super cool stuff with Limbo and LibSQL.

Why shouldn't it! It's fast, small, ubiquitous.

I always found it interesting that SQLite is embedded in almost all popular operating systems and browsers. It has like 90% market share in these spaces, being included in Android, macOS, Windows, Chromium, Firefox, etc. [0]

It's very likely that the browser and operating system you're using to view this page are powered by SQLite.

SQLite is one of the greatest pieces of software ever written, and D. Richard Hipp is a model, both professionally and personally, that other developers should emulate.
