ForerunnerDB

ForerunnerDB is a NoSQL JSON document database designed for both browser-based and Node.js applications, offering a MongoDB-like query language. The current stable version is 2.0.24, with a significant rewrite for version 3.0 actively under development in a separate repository (forerunnerdb-core). Key differentiators include its dual-environment support, advanced features like data views, joins, sub-queries, and collection groups, along with optional modules for AngularJS/Ionic integration, real-time data binding to the DOM (browser-only), persistent storage, data compression and encryption, and a built-in REST API server for Node.js. It is production-ready, battle-tested in applications serving millions of users daily, and maintained by Irrelon Software Limited. While no explicit release cadence is published, development is ongoing for the next major version.
