KiteSQL

Why we included this project

KiteSQL is a lightweight embedded relational database written entirely in Rust, inspired by MyRocks and SQLite. It works both as a SQL engine and as a native Rust data API, so you can run raw SQL, use typed ORM models, run schema migrations, or build queries with a builder-style API without leaving the language. On native targets it ships with RocksDB and LMDB persistent backends plus an in-memory mode, and it compiles to WebAssembly for JavaScript runtimes, which makes it usable in desktop tools and browser-based demos alike. Because metadata and data live in KV stores with no intermediate service, deployment stays simple and write-heavy workloads stay fast. If you want durable, queryable local storage inside a Rust application and would rather not run a separate database server, this is a solid fit.
