This is really amazing as is their standalone pglite project, which is a WASM port of Postgres. One surprise for me though is that Electric is a read only replica. In particular, “Electric does read-path sync. It syncs data out-of Postgres, into local apps and services. Electric does not do write-path sync. It doesn't provide (or prescribe) a built-in solution for getting data back into Postgres from local apps and services.” https://electric-sql.com/docs/guides/writes
