Product Decisions This Supports

Evaluating local-first/offline-first capabilities for Laravel applications backed by Postgres; this package may reduce custom work to connect Laravel with ElectricSQL-style client sync.
Build vs. buy/adopt decisions for sync plumbing: change propagation, auth boundaries, client shape definitions, and conflict/failure handling.
Roadmap discovery for offline-capable PWAs, mobile field tools, collaborative internal apps, and low-connectivity workflows.
Use cases: field service, offline data collection, collaborative editing, and internal tools where users lose connectivity. Less relevant for simple CRUD apps, read-only dashboards, or systems without Postgres.
v0.0.1 is an initial release with no substantive release notes. Treat it as an exploration/prototype signal, not a production dependency or roadmap commitment.

When to Consider This Package

Consider it when the product is Laravel + Postgres, has a real offline/local-first requirement, and the team can absorb pre-1.0 API instability.
Consider it for a time-boxed spike to validate sync behavior, auth integration, schema evolution, and client conflict handling before committing to custom sync infrastructure.
Look elsewhere if the stack is not Postgres, offline sync is not a differentiator, or the product needs vendor support, SLAs, security certifications, documented migration paths, or proven high-scale multi-tenant sync.
Avoid production reliance unless engineering can audit the package, pin/fork it, own fallback paths, and verify maintenance activity and compatibility with the target Laravel/ElectricSQL versions.

Executives: this is a low-cost technical spike to assess whether offline/local-first sync is a viable differentiator. It is not production-ready at v0.0.1 and should not create roadmap commitments until validated.
Engineering: treat v0.0.1 as a proof point. Review the repository docs and code for Laravel/ElectricSQL compatibility, auth, schema/migration behavior, sync semantics, and failure modes. Time-box evaluation, pin versions, and plan an exit path if the package is adopted.
Product: use it to de-risk offline use cases and clarify requirements before investing in custom sync infrastructure. Do not promise offline mode solely on the basis of this release.
