Research direction

No repository file, test, or entry point is identified; begin by defining the intended Electron integration and evaluating the proposed electron-sqlite3/SQLite approach. Done would require a concrete implementation scope and acceptance criteria, which this issue does not currently provide.

Description

I'm thinking about using an SQL database in an Electron app.

I want to bake the database software into the app so the user doesn't have to install anything.

I don't imagine the user as being someone who would enjoy installing database software. ;-)

Looks like SQLite is the best option.

Any problems, other ideas?
