- audreyt 13y agoYes, we're certainly inspired by Kanso. PgREST was originally designed for a large, in-production Postgres app (i.e. Socialtext), so we can get all the model, validation, view & trigger code in one place, getting the benefits of CouchApps while maintaining the underlying data layer. For new projects, the main difference is likely familiarity with the toolchain (npm+Pg vs Kanso+CouchDB).
- trumbitta2 13y agoThe word I want to use for this is "refreshing". Back in the day, I thought Couchapps and Kanso + CouchDB were great and I hoped they would lead an entire new breed of web applications. Thank you for making it happen!
