SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Drift provides a typed, reactive path to adding persistent storage to Dart apps, simplifying data access and migrations.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Type-safe queries, migrations, and reactive streams for Dart CLI tools, backend services, and non-Flutter desktop apps.
  • Built-in SQLite support with sqlite3 and optional PostgreSQL support via drift_postgres, including connection pooling and server-side patterns.
  • Real-world use cases include offline-first apps, data synchronization, and tooling that requires reliable data persistence.

Quick Start

Create a Drift database class, connect to SQLite or PostgreSQL, and run migrations to start using persistent storage.

FAQPage Schema
How do I set up persistent storage in Dart using Drift?▼

Drift provides a typed, reactive path to persistent storage in Dart apps, simplifying data access, migrations, and query safety for CLI tools, backend services, and non-Flutter desktop applications requiring reliable data persistence.

Can I use Drift with PostgreSQL in a Dart backend service?▼

Yes, Drift supports PostgreSQL in Dart backend services via the drift_postgres package, enabling connection pooling, server-side usage patterns, and type-safe queries for robust data persistence.

Does Drift support reactive streams for SQLite queries in Dart?▼

Yes, Drift supports reactive streams for SQLite queries in Dart apps, automatically updating UI or logic layers whenever underlying data changes using sqlite3 integration. This built-in reactive stream support applies to both SQLite and PostgreSQL connections.

What is the best way to run database migrations in Dart CLI tools?▼

The best way to manage database migrations in Dart CLI tools is using Drift's built-in migration strategies, ensuring type-safe schema evolution and reliable persistent storage across SQLite and PostgreSQL connections.

Do I need Flutter to use Drift for desktop app data persistence?▼

No, you do not need Flutter to use Drift. It applies directly to non-Flutter desktop apps, CLI tools, and backend services requiring type-safe queries, migrations, and reliable SQLite or PostgreSQL storage.
