I just put up this website, its ugly but working on the content, in particular I want it very easy to understand wtf it is and get started, would love to hear your feedback.
I especially like PouchDB-Server as a mini CouchDB replacement ( https://github.com/nick-thompson/pouchdb-server ). Congrats for implementing LevelDB into PouchDB so we can use it in Node.
The congratulations goes to https://twitter.com/chesles who implemented most of the levelDB adapter and Nick Thompson for the router + server implementation.
The server is really exciting, we mostly built it so we can reuse CouchDBs test suite however with it being so easy to install its becoming pretty invaluable
The website is mostly very clear but I wasn't sure what the db on the backend would be, it sounds like it expects to work with couchdb but an adaptor could potentially be made to work with anything server side?
Thats useful, I really should explain this a bit more on the site.
In the browser PouchDB will store its data in IndexedDB or WebSQL, in node its LevelDB, with the HTTP adapter you can use any product that implements the CouchDB HTTP Api protocol, currently this is CouchDB, Cloudant, PouchDB-Server and Couchbase Lite (previously TouchDB)
The important part is that it can only sync with a backend that implements the same replication protocol.
Dale - I've been really interested in this project since I work with CouchbaseLite. Hope you get good feedback. I'm particularly interested in setting this up with Sync_gateway. https://github.com/couchbaselabs/sync_gateway
