🚀 Database Version
The Database version (DB version) of Logseq introduces DB graphs. See this page to get an overview of the main features for DB graphs. If you are an existing user, see changes with the DB version. The DB version has its own new mobile app (on iOS, with Android coming soon)! To participate in the mobile app alpha, please complete this brief form. The DB version also has a new sync approach, RTC (Real Time Collaboration)! You can use it to sync graphs between multiple devices or collaborate with others. To participate in the RTC alpha, please fill out this form.
The DB version is in beta status while the new mobile app and RTC is in alpha. This means that data loss is possible so we recommend automated backups or regular SQLite DB backups. We recommend you create a dedicated test graph and choose one project that’s not crucial for you.
To get started with the DB version:
- To try the latest web version, go to https://app.logseq.com/.
- To try the latest desktop version, go to https://github.com/logseq/logseq/releases/tag/nightly and download the artifact for your operating system.
- To try the latest by building from the source code
- Use
test/db for stable releases. Fewer bugs and slower updates. Update frequency: days or weeks.
- Use
master for the latest updates as they are developed. Expect more bugs and faster changes. Update frequency: hours or days.
- To report bugs, please file them at https://github.com/logseq/db-test/issues.

#db-feedback channel.

#db-chat channel in Discord.
