pouchdb: Detailed Overview & Metrics

v9.0.0(4 months ago)

PouchDB is an open-source JavaScript database that syncs data seamlessly between web and mobile applications. It is designed to work offline and offers a flexible, schema-less data model that allows you to store and retrieve JSON documents easily. PouchDB is built on top of IndexedDB and WebSQL in the browser, and SQLite on mobile devices, providing a consistent API across different platforms.

Compared to traditional databases like MongoDB or SQLite, PouchDB excels in offline-first applications and real-time data synchronization. Its lightweight nature and compatibility with popular frontend frameworks like React and Angular make it a popular choice for building progressive web apps.
