Or both! I've followed ElectricSQL for a while and it's pretty awesome to see how they've approached it. Rest APIs replaced with client side SQLlite which syncs to server side postgres over a CRDT layer that you don't actually have to touch/know anything about. And they just rebuilt postgres on pure WASM (https://github.com/electric-sql/pglite).

It's just cool to think that maybe you don't have to do design all of these intricate REST apis and just call SQL.
