Wow, this is fantastic -- can't count the number of "free hosting" sites that are disappointing because they don't have a database. Well done! I may try it out.


What's the point of having a database for a static site though?


1. To store the site content in 2. To store metadata that gets integrated into the generated site 3. To record stats/metadata about the site generation

There's probably other scenarios people can think of.


Check out https://chat.1mb.site and https://forum.1mb.site which are 2 example apps using a 1MB database. Using nothing but JavaScript :)


Thank you! I really hope you try it out :)
