LadybugDB WASM Shell

A browser/WebAssembly-based shell for LadybugDB, an embedded graph database that runs entirely in the browser.

Quick Start

pnpm install
pnpm dev

Open http://localhost:3000/ in your browser.

Development

The dev command automatically copies the multithreaded WASM modules from @ladybugdb/wasm-core before starting the Vite dev server. The shell mounts OPFS via WasmFS and stores the database at /opfs/ladybug-shell.

Building

pnpm build

This builds both the WASM modules and the production bundle, then writes precompressed .gz and .br versions of text/WASM assets in dist/.

The web server or CDN must serve those files with Content-Encoding: gzip or Content-Encoding: br for browsers to use them. GitHub Pages does not expose custom response-header configuration from this repository; use a CDN or static host that supports precompressed assets if you need to control compression explicitly.
