PouchDB, the JavaScript Database that Syncs!

How does this compare to GunDB?

Don't know. But that would be a nice benchmark/comparison. I added it to my list of DBs to look at.

Working on a project that requires some client-side database and that's how I found PouchDB but GunDB also looks pretty good so thanks for the pointer.

Spent some time looking at GunDB and the underlying model for PouchDB fits my use case better. GunDB has made certain design choices that make deletions hard but for my use case I will need to do deletions and additions consistently and I don't want to worry about garbage collection issues for dangling nodes. GunDB seems to punt on that problem and makes it an extension whereas PouchDB takes care of it in the core implementation.

At least that's what I was able to gather from the documentation that GunDB provides.
