MarcelloDB is a mobile NoSql database for Xamarin, Windows(Phone) 8.1/10 and regular .net/mono. It is very light-weight with minimal memory footprint.
MarcelloDB saves plain C# objects, including child objects, lists and dictionaries. Not having to map your objects to the relational model can save you hundreds of lines of code.
It's a pure C# implementation, no need to package other binaries.
#Documentation Read the docs here: http://www.marcellodb.org
#Current Status
Current version: 0.4.0. See the roadmap.
Although still under heavy development, both the api and the file format are already quite stable.
Be carefull. Backwards compatibility with existing data will not be guaranteed untill v1.x
###Upgrading to 0.4 There are a few breaking changes from 0.3 to 0.4, read about them here
