I couldn't agree more here and it is sharing the same protocol with Couchbase Mobile. For me, mobile apps and offline storage with Sync is the value add. I know with Parse, push notification was the big thing for them but also it was expensive overall. This is something where you can do with Couchbase and it is all free too.

Would have to throw in Couchbase Mobile for comparisons too. It is Open Sourced as well and it provides the offline component with abstraction to sync-ing which is one of the most difficult features/problems it solves.

wow that seems pretty easy to get a local database going in a Native React app.

Pretty neat that a Peer-2-Peer Photo Sharing app can be built using Couchbase Technologies -

I actually started learning NoSQL on MongoDB but later switched over to CouchDB and never looked back since.

Seems like a lot of other companies are too (Eg. Viber) Here's a video from their tech team explaining the reasons behind the switch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R5JpRrMJVIA

Cool! And check out the app using Ionic and Couchbase on the backends: https://twitter.com/sweetiewill/status/580148597037105154

It would be pretty good to have Offline Mobile support especially in China where network connectivity is not consistent.

Any Unity mobile game can have the Offline feature by integrating Couchbase Mobile: https://github.com/couchbaselabs/mini-hacks/tree/master/spac...
