"Convenient"
"Both are free to use"
"It's an embedded database, so it's easy to work with -- the db is just a file, no server needed, so super easy to back up, clone, etc -- and it's free and open source."
"SQlite"
"Why not SQLite?"
"Based off SQLite"
"If local, then SQLite is perhaps the only option you got .. packages like drift are built over it."
"SQLite is great, I use it on 30 small/medium sites with no issues at all."
