Its an interesting stack, for sure. I'm only surprised by the sqlite choice. With such a concurrent and speedy backend, what do you do about concurrent writes and the lack of row/page level locking in sqlite?

SQLite is great when there are few writes, such as for a personal blog. For lots of writes, you probably need another database.

Most things I do never get that big / popular so it’s not really an issue (especially for the convenience of SQLite when starting up a new project). The odd time I’ve run into issues I just migrate to postgres.

That is exotic indeed, but I know Mithril and Rocket as well, they’re nice. I take it you favour performance over other things?

That is a very interesting stack. Thanks for pointing to statik and mithril, I didn't know about them.
