<p>Hi Stewart,</p>
<p>For Multi-User data editing I definitely recommend using PostgreSQL (the server should be in the same LAN than the clients editing). Geopackage isn't designed for multi-user editing. Two users using Geopackage "read only" should work though.</p>
<p>The QGIS project can be stored in Geopackage or PostgreSQL, but is normally a separate file (.qgz or .qgs). The project file doesn't store the geodata but only the references to the files, databases or web services as well as any configuration and styling.</p>
<p>Hope this helps,</p>
<p>Andreas</p>
