Found this. I have very light DataView use, but figure if I ever want to go deeper I might swap it out with this because DataView is new to me, while SQL is something I already know.

There is another issue with DataView. You, very quickly bump into slow queries in a medium size vault . I call having 4600 notes a medium size note, to be clear.

Oh this looks really good, I never can get Data view to do what I want without a whole lot of trial and error.

Similar to my plugin Query all The Things based off the alasql engine

This is what I've wanted for a while, being able to query your data like you would a database is I feel the best way to utilize your notes content. I was considering setting up a local database of some sorts like Cassandra and sync all my notes to it for easier data querying, this might be an easier alternative
