But targeting Level/abstract-leveldown would enable me to use LevelDB and IndexedDB as interchangeable backstores.

This is what level does. In Node.js it uses LevelDB for storage, and in browsers it uses IndexedDB (and I don't consider that an ideal choice; IndexedDB lacks primitives for proper backpressure on streams which are a key concept in Level). Building an IndexedDB API on top of level feels backwards to me and as you realized, isn't 100% possible for lack of transactions.

Maybe naming all these things /(?:abstract-)?level(?:up|down|-?js)/i wasn't the most practical thing to do...

I hear you. This ecosystem grew over a 10-year timespan with a fair amount of experimentation, people and ideas.

Further research suggests it wouldn't be a drop-in replacement since LevelDB doesn't support transactions without cshum/level-transactions which doesn't share the same transaction interface as IndexedDB.

Okay I think I get it now.

LevelDB is not interchangeable with IndexedDB.

But targeting Level/abstract-leveldown would enable me to use LevelDB and IndexedDB as interchangeable backstores.
