CouchDB Apps
“Look Ma, no middleware”. This presentation is a tour de force
through building standalone CouchDB applications with nothing but HTML
& Ajax directly talking to CouchDB’s REST API.
CouchDB
applications run locally, on a users machine. Application data can be
replicated between users and central servers alike using a peer to peer
structure. Users can access their data when offline (for example when
on a plane). Even the applications themselves can be replicated (for
software updates) and tech-savy users can enhance their local copy and
make patches to their friends and co-workers available through
replication.
Bring your Laptop to follow along
when we build the example application. Bonus points, when you come with
a running CouchDB installation.
