MbTiles does not requires SQLite. It can be read by SQLite. At the
moment, it needs a TileServer for OpenLayers. It works in OpenLayers
rigth now with remote server.

http://mbtiles.org/

Tilelive supports backends for serving tiles and for storing them when
creating mbtiles or other caches of tiles.
https://github.com/mapbox/tilelive.js

For example MbTiles and TileCache
http://tilecache.org/docs/Caches.html

What is needed is how to have MbTiles working offline. It needs how to
figure out how to local webcache that reads MbTiles for OpenLayers web
application.
