I understand, it was mostly or the-in-the-future-maybe-have-a-web-function-to-sync.
I also suggested Couch because outside of western countries, you seldom find laptops or desktops (outside of cities), but smartphones with a recent browser are ubiquitous, so if it worked on IE7 it would run anywhere, even in the most remote area with no/crappy network. And the first time I used couch, my programming "knowledge" was very basic HTML (no JS).
> if we went with the browser I would have to support mobile phones and I don't want to support mobile phones for this use case for a lot of other reasons.
Yeah... all in all I completely misinterpreted the requirement of your use-case.

- jfkebwjsbx 6y agoYou're welcome! I am glad you took it in a good way and helped you.
