Capacitor SQLite Tutorial — CRUD, Transactions & Starter App

tutorials
1

If you’re building a Capacitor app and need a solid way to handle local data, I put together a practical SQLite tutorial.

SQLite gives you a much more robust alternative to things like localStorage or IndexedDB:

  • Structured queries, filtering, and relationships

  • Fast and predictable performance

  • Transactions for data consistency

  • Same API across iOS, Android, and Web

I created a video tutorial where I focus on the fundamentals with a simple demo:

  • CRUD operations

  • Transactions (how to use them properly)

  • Structuring your data layer in a Capacitor app

I also included free starter apps so you don’t have to start from scratch :blue_heart: :

Would love feedback or to hear how you’re handling local data in your apps :raising_hands:

The project uses capacitor-sqlite plugin which is available to all Capawesome Insiders.
