Turborepo (pnpm workspaces) with all dependencies pinned to latest mutually-compatible versions: turbo 2.9, TypeScript 6, Fastify 5, React 19, Vite 8, better-sqlite3 12 + Drizzle ORM 0.45. Layout: - apps/server Fastify backend (local JWT auth + role guard, /health) - apps/web React 19 + Vite 8 operator SPA - packages/db Drizzle schema on SQLite/WAL; append-only events + users - packages/devices reader/printer/relay adapter interfaces (intent-only relay) - packages/shared shared domain types Architecture constraints from the design wiki are encoded in the scaffold: append-only hash-chained + signed event log, device-agnostic adapters, "a barrier is not a door" (relay expresses intent only), fully-local offline-first auth. wiki/ is an LLM-maintained Obsidian knowledge base (28 pages) ingested from the architecture & design notes, with its own maintenance schema. Verified: pnpm install, full turbo build (5/5), server boots and serves /health, drizzle-kit generates the initial migration.

SQLite
The local database (better-sqlite3 driver, accessed via drizzle-orm). The right call
for a single-site, single-writer system. (See parking-system-architecture §2, §4.)
Why it fits
Its only practical limit is write concurrency — one writer at a time, mitigated by WAL mode (many concurrent readers + one writer). A parking workload never approaches this. Other official limits are far beyond reach: ~281 TB max DB size, effectively unlimited rows, 32,767 columns/table, 1 GB per text/blob cell.
You'd only outgrow SQLite with multiple machines writing the same DB (never do this over a network share) or sustained high-frequency concurrent writes — neither applies here.
Relation to PostgreSQL
The move to remote PostgreSQL is a business/durability decision (the remote sync target), not a capacity one. drizzle-orm schemas port over with minimal change.
Open risk: a disk failure currently means total revenue-history loss — see open-questions #5 (durability/backup). Part of the technology-stack.
