Description

Since more data in graph shape is being used, it would be handy to make this easily possible also with spin

  1. similar to sqlite: an embedded property graph database e.g. kuzudb https://github.com/kuzudb/kuzu
  2. BYO Graph DB e.g. falkorDB (the successor of redisgraph, same team...) https://github.com/falkordb/falkordb or good old neo4j

imho the most important thing for a broad adaption should be choosing the ones supporting opencypher / GQL (Graph Query Language) as query language. This has just (April 2024) become the new ISO standard for graph querying (graph peer to sql) https://jtc1info.org/slug/gql-database-language/
