As always, a lovely blog post!  My very initial reaction is that the
demo service is a little buried in the blog post -- it might be worth
adding a TL;DR to the top to point people straight at it.

Also, it might be too much detail, but I found your advice about using
the developer console to inspect the state of IndexedDB and LocalStorage
to be very useful.  It's a great way to see exactly what Irmin is doing,
and I wasn't aware of it being buried away in the developer utilities.
