What Zero is

Zero is Rocicorp's general-purpose sync engine, the successor to Replicache. Your Postgres stays the source of truth; zero-cache replicates from it and serves ZQL queries to clients out of a local store, so reads are instant and writes go through custom mutators that run server-side in a real transaction. It brings no auth, storage or cron — it does one thing and leaves the rest of your stack alone.

Recent changes

    Rocicorp moved Zero from invite-only alpha to public beta, with custom mutators as the supported write path. It is the clearest expression yet of the alternative to backend platforms: keep your Postgres, put a sync engine in front of it.
