TPDP006: PouchDB and its Usefulness in Browser Based Development

The Polyglot Developer Podcast

In this episode I am joined by Nolan Lawson, one of the main contributors on the PouchDB open source project. We discuss everything from what is PouchDB, what does it do under the covers, what development platforms are supported, and what does it aim to accomplish that might have been particularly difficult with another tool. This episode is targeted towards web and mobile developers who include JavaScript as one of the core technologies in their stack because PouchDB is in fact a JavaScript wrapper. I've personally used PouchDB in the past because it makes it incredibly easy to synchronize data with remote databases via a web or mobile application. If you're investigating sync solutions, Nolan and I have you covered in this episode.
