IndexedDb is absolutely useless

[Horton]

I know that Indexed Db is a standard, but it looks like whoever wrote that standard has never written a single business application that uses a database.

I can’t even create a mini database to store the app settings without going through tons of complications and limitations, bugs, crashes, etc.

That thing is messed up on every level, the API and the developer tools, let’s ignore the developer tools for a second and talk about the API.

Creating a database, deleting a database, opening, creating tables or object stores, all of that must be made simple and working, none of it is, even the error handling, you must use try and catch and on error function all at the same time since the code may trigger an exception or call a function when there is an error?

I know pot is now legal in some places, but please use it after work :-)

Who knows, maybe the Indexed DB guy is genius, and I still need time to get used to it, but I doubt it.

Request: Make Indexed DB useful for business applications, how? hire a guy and ask him to write one using IndexedDb, and record his cursings, you will get a clue :)

This is not the appropriate group for such discussion. This group is strictly about Chrome Web Apps (a Chrom(ium) specific kind of packaged web applications).

If this is Chrom(ium) specific rant, chromium-html5 is the right group.

If this is a general rant (seems so), use public-...@w3.org (subscribe, archives).

Maybe you can suggest much better API and flow that are also flexible enough and implementable and they will be accepted, who knows.
