Show HN: Marmot v2.20 – A distributed SQLite server with MySQL wire compatbility

maxpert Friday, December 12, 2025

Marmot hits major milestone I've been solo pushing (with help of AI), to really mature out the system. And yesterday I have hit the first milestone where MySQL API is stable enough to make WordPress install and work flawlessly. System is now in a place where you can spin off a cluster, and then spin off many replicas you want to scale out. I wanted to build something that is actually hard with AI, and it's been long and tough journey trying various AI tools, and huge amount of learning. I will follow up with a blog post, but since I have all the scripts to help you guys spin up cluster and examples I wanted to put it out there so that you guys can poke holes and help me improve it.

Most fun part is a Wordpress running in cluster: https://github.com/maxpert/marmot/tree/master/examples/wordp...

Each one of these Wordpress instances is talking to it's own "MySQL" but under the hood replication is being done and stored over SQLite DB.
