PouchDB is an open-source JavaScript database inspired by Apache CouchDB that is designed to run well within the browser. It allows you to store data locally while offline, then synchronize it with CouchDB and compatible servers when the application is back online, similar to the realtime syncing capabilities of @firebase/database.
Realm is a mobile database that runs directly inside phones, tablets or wearables. It offers realtime and offline data storage/syncing. Realm differs from @firebase/database in that it's more focused on local storage, but it also supports syncing data with the cloud.
