RocksDB is an embeddable persistent key-value store for fast storage.
candystore - Rust
A fast (blazingly, of course), persistent, in-process key-value store that relies on a novel sharding algorithm. Since Candy does not rely on log-structured merge (LSM) trees or B-Trees, no journal/WAL is needed and IOs go directly to file.
Persistent Storage Options
This API provides database persistence via localStorage/sessionStorage and, in compatible browsers, the Origin-Private FileSystem.

sindresorhus/electron-store
Simple data persistence for your Electron app or module - Save and load user preferences, app state, cache, etc
fjall - Rust
Fjall is a log-structured embeddable key-value storage engine written in Rust. It features:
Keybase
Keybase is for keeping everyone's chats and files safe, from families to communities to companies. MacOS, Windows, Linux, iPhone, and Android.
surrealdb/surrealdb
A scalable, distributed, collaborative, document-graph database, for the realtime web
storekey - Rust
Binary serialization library for Rust values which preserves lexicographic sort order. Order-preserving encoding is useful for creating keys for sorted key-value stores with byte string typed keys, such as leveldb and sled.
CaviraOSS/OpenMemory
Local persistent memory store for LLM applications including claude desktop, github copilot, codex, antigravity, etc.

It's just hashed data, what's so complex about a blob store anyway?
Permissioned Data Shapes: Self-Only Bookmarks - Nick's Blog
A self-only space is the smallest shape permissioned data can take: one authority, one member, one repo, and private bookmarks that share a record shape and a write path with public ones.
