IndexedDB is a joke of a database. Yes, it can store data, and you can create a very simple index, so it's _technically_ a database… But its ability to express queries is borderline useless for all but simplest use cases, it's slow, and it's very inconvenient to use. So solutions exist that range from giving IDB a simpler, more modern API, all the way to using IDB as a dumb storage medium to a fast in-memory database.
