The latest release of Google Chrome (version 124.0.6367.78/.79) broke the app-designer because the flag that would re-enable the built-in database in Chrome (used by app-designer) is no longer available…

I have created and [issue for this in GitHub](https://github.com/odk-x/tool-suite-X/issues/491) and we’re working to get a hotfix out asap…

I’ve created a PR to migrate app-designer from websql to sqlite3… If anybody are able to help test the migrated app-designer it would be super helpful. You can clone the app-designer and test it by executing something along the lines of:

```csh
git clone https://github.com/HelloSapiens/app-designer.git
cd app-designer
npm install
grunt

```
