A lightweight, decentralized graph database designed for modern web applications, offering real-time peer-to-peer synchronization, WebAuthn-based authentication, role-based access control (RBAC), and efficient local storage utilizing OPFS.

Looks promising! Excellent!
Compared to TigerGraph, Neo4j, JanusGraph, Dgraph, and ArangoDB, I’d love to see a benchmark-ish comparison of GenosDB in terms of performance, latency, scalability, modularity, and flexibility.

GenosDB isn’t aiming to replace TigerGraph, Neo4j, JanusGraph, Dgraph, or ArangoDB in traditional server-side workloads. It takes a different direction:
• Runs entirely in the browser (no backend)
• Clients are the source of truth
• Peer-to-peer sync via WebRTC
• WebAuthn + RBAC for authentication
• Local storage via OPFS
• Lightweight bundle
It targets edge-native, local-first, and real-time apps, not centralized graph clusters.
Performance: Fast local queries, sync latency depends on peers
Latency: Near-zero for local ops; sync varies
Scalability: Horizontal, client-based
Modularity: Built with pluggable components (e.g., auth, AI query)
Flexibility: Ideal for dynamic, offline-capable, decentralized apps
If you’re building a modern, peer-first system—GenosDB is a better fit than traditional server-side graph DBs.
