Apache PouchDB is an open-source JavaScript document database inspired by Apache CouchDB that runs in the browser (via IndexedDB) and in Node.js. It enables offline-first applications by syncing data with CouchDB-compatible servers.
Use cases
- build offline-first web apps that sync when back online
- store documents locally in the browser
- sync browser data with a CouchDB server
- embed a small NoSQL database in a Node.js app
- replicate a database between client and server
When to choose
- you need offline-capable apps with automatic sync to CouchDB
- you want a lightweight document store in the browser
- you need client-server replication with the CouchDB protocol
When to avoid
- you need a heavy relational database with SQL joins
- you need a server-side primary datastore for large-scale workloads
- you don't need sync or offline storage
