1st October 2026Fisher: A Document Database for Anywhere SQLite is a Good ChoiceFisher gets talked about as the Critter Stack's event store on SQLite, but it's also a full document database that lives in a file inside your own process. If SQLite is the right storage for your application, Fisher is a much lower ceremony way to use it than EF Core: no mapping, no migration files, schema changes that just work through Weasel, and a first class Wolverine integration.
27th August 2026Change Documents Without Loading Them: The Patching API in Marten, Polecat, and FisherThe Critter Stack's Patching API lets you modify persisted JSON documents in place -- no deserialize, mutate, re-serialize round trip. Here's the shared API across Marten, Polecat, and Fisher, what each database does underneath, and where the three genuinely differ.18th August 2026Meet Fisher, and One Handler Across Three Databases: The Critter Stack Since August 2ndSixty-three releases in sixteen days across Marten, Wolverine, Polecat, Fisher, Weasel, and the shared JasperFx libraries. Fisher brings event sourcing and document storage to SQLite with no server at all, the shared contracts wave means the same Wolverine handler now runs on PostgreSQL, SQL Server, or SQLite without naming a store, and a projection loader bug that silently skipped events makes this an upgrade you should not sit on.
