Unauthorized usage

Unauthorized usage 🔓

The app should be usable without log in. In order to sync data between different devices / browsers, a user can log in.

Right now we are using Option B.

Option A - LocalStorage

We could use localStorage for unauthorized users. This is a challenge, as localStorage does not play well with our current architecture (TRPC / Prisma). The prefered option would be a Prisma-like solution for client side storage.

Maybe use localForage for this?

Option B - Same DB, but different auth method

We could create our own token for unauthorized users.

Option C - Offline first DB (rxdb)

We could opt for an offline first approach with a solution like rxdb. This however would mean to rework the whole architecture, as it does not allow relational data.
