Is there any interest in supporting other languages? Like how libp2p is being gradually ported to Rust, Go, Java. I feel like OrbitDB could become the new data model of the web if it went multi language. Or maybe was compiled to WebAssembly and embeddable using Wasmer.


There's definitely interest. Berty has a Go implementation and the idea of a Rust implementation gets tossed around every season.

Can Webassembly read IndexedDB yet?


It seems so: https://github.com/nwestfall/BlazorDB

Although this might be using JavaScript interop instead of using WebAssembly directly.

Edit: check this out: https://www.ditto.live/

It’s a multi language CRDT implementation that seems to use WebAssembly to be available in multiple languages.
