CBL has worked OK so far for us with just plain CouchDB serverside, no sync gateways. But I can see where you're coming from, if your stack is centered around JS I think pouchDB makes more sense. We have potentially large DBs (depends on usecase) where browser context isn't enough and/or provides a bad user experience.
- davidbanham 10y agoOh so you're using CBL with a couchdb backend? I didn't even realise that was possible. I thought it only synced with Couchbase which is where all the complexity came in.
- m_mueller 10y agoYes it's possible. Here and there there might be a quirk but so far nothing that set us back too much. I'm not a fan of Couchbase's Syncgateways either, I'm not sure the problem they're solving is a very common one.
- stock_toaster 10y agosync_gateway is basically a couchdb protocol proxy, for couchbase-lite to use, that sits in front of couchbase. couchbase-lite apparently also works with couchdb (protocol compliant) and cloudant. I am currently working at a gig where the use of couchbase-lite with sync gateway and couchbase are required for a project.
