Johannes Schickling

Founder of Prisma (the TypeScript ORM company), now working on local-first software: creator of livestore (with Nicholas Schiefer and Geoffrey Litt) and of Overtone, a music-curation app that serves as its reference deployment rethinking-data-client-event-sourcing.

His position in this corpus: the advocate for event-sourcing over CRDTs as the sync mechanism for client-side databases, and for “data is the bottleneck” as the diagnosis of why web apps feel worse than desktop ones. He is also the maintainer of the framework that implements his preferred answer, which is worth holding in mind when reading the comparison.
