>CouchDB is awesome, full stop.

The problem I had with CouchDB is integrating it into a framework like Rails. CouchDB on its own does so much cool stuff. The "free" HTTP API and client replication via PouchDB are the two huge ones. But it just wasn't smooth enough to get the data out, use it where I wanted, and then save it back.

I had to write my own libs/helpers to interact and make it feel friendly to the developer when I used it with Rails in the past.

But after that, it was very nice.
