why not? Turso is a fully local database, you can just download the shell and use it as you would use sqlite.

More specifically, I didn't see any commits about multiple simultaneous writers having landed in main and it's not document as a feature in the release notes https://github.com/tursodatabase/turso/commits

neither the prerelease

https://github.com/tursodatabase/turso/releases/tag/v0.3.0-p...

nor their latest release.

https://github.com/tursodatabase/turso/releases/tag/v0.2.2

The core/mvcc directory does have commits though, so maybe you can.

You just have to pass the experimental flag. I thought this was explained in the blog ?

I searched https://turso.tech/blog/beyond-the-single-writer-limitation-... with ctrl-f for "download" and "--exp" and got no results for either. There was a link to a live demo webpage at the very end. Am I looking at the right blog? That's the one linked at the top of the page.

The flag is --experimental-mvcc, it is in the help for the shell. You are right that the blog failed to mention. I will get this fixed soon!! Thanks for noticing it.

Ah there it is! Thanks, I'll play around with it tonight.

There is a lot of work that still needs to be done to make this production-ready, both from a performance and reliability point of view, as we did our best to convey on the blog. We truly appreciate you trying it out! Report any issues, please.
