PowerSync

aid: powersync
name: PowerSync
description: 'PowerSync is a sync engine that automatically synchronizes backend databases (Postgres, MongoDB, MySQL, SQL
  Server) with client-side SQLite, enabling offline-first and local-first applications. It consists of two components: the
  PowerSync Service (available as a managed cloud service or self-hosted via Docker) and a set of open-source client SDKs.
  Client SDKs are available for JavaScript/Web, React Native, Flutter/Dart, Kotlin, Swift, Node.js, .NET, and Rust. Authentication
  is handled via JWT tokens, with support for major providers including Auth0, Firebase, Supabase, Amazon Cognito, and Azure
  AD. PowerSync streams database changes in real-time so clients can query and mutate local SQLite without waiting on the
  network.'

  description: The PowerSync Service exposes a streaming sync protocol over HTTP/WebSocket that client SDKs connect to using
    JWT authentication. Clients submit their current bucket state and the service streams real-time checkpoint and operation
    data back, enabling incremental SQLite sync for offline-first apps.
