What is couchdb-nano?
Nano is the official Apache CouchDB client library for Node.js, providing a minimalistic and promise-based interface to interact with CouchDB databases. It allows developers to perform all CouchDB operations—like document management, replication, views, and changes feeds—directly from Node.js applications with minimal abstraction.
Node.js developers building applications that use Apache CouchDB as their database backend, particularly those who prefer a lightweight, non-opinionated client that closely mirrors CouchDB's native HTTP API.
Developers choose Nano because it's the officially maintained CouchDB client for Node.js, offering reliability, comprehensive feature coverage, and a design philosophy that minimizes abstraction. Its native Promise support, TypeScript definitions, and stream capabilities make it a modern and efficient choice for CouchDB interactions.
