       | Litestream author here. This is on the staging site for the docs
       | for the upcoming v0.4.0 release. I'd love to hear feedback from
       | anyone who wants to kick the tires before the release. Thanks!

         | wonderful example of how to use it.

         | Out of curiosity, how do you know when someone shares a link
         | about LiteStream on HN? Asking because you never fail to answer
         | people's questions and comments, which is impressive :)

           | As for HN, I use f5bot[1] for keyword notifications and then
           | I use hnreplies[2] for getting notified when someone replies
           | to a comment. They work great although I wish HN had some of
           | these features built in.

         | Yes, this is a post about a new feature in Litestream though.
         | It allows live replication from a primary node to one or more
         | read-only replicas. It gives you the ability to do scale out
         | reads as well as do geographic replication.
         | 
         | There's a small demo app where you can see a single primary in
         | Chicago (ord) is updated when you click, "Increment", and it
         | replicates out to 15 other regions worldwide via SQLite &

           | That's awesome and I didn't mean to dismiss this post or
           | anything like that. Just wanted to provide some additional
           | context. Thanks for the details.
