Daybed's built in local storage system is the save stack, works well on all platforms. I am actually fiddling around with using SQLite as a save file as well, just haven't had a lot of free time. You can set things to sync whenever possible rather easily as well. CouchDB does have a

Just a quick thank you to Greg for the info on his Daybed library, and for the Udemy course on CouchDB. I found the course fascinating - and I watched it first so I had the overview before watching the Daybed specific talk in Livecode Global. (And I have to admit I watched it all on 1.5x

For experimentation, you can setup a free account with IBM for Cloudant. The free account is for 1GB which is enough for around 2 million records/revisions Cloudant shares most of their code with Apache for CouchDB, the only major difference is how they setup users. The Daybed library will work

Thanks again for more responses But my interest in couchDB is about getting a database with built in world class synchronization. If it can be embedded in iOS apps and Android apps why can't it be embedded in LiveCode apps. Thanks Todd On Fri, May 13, 2011 at 2:07 PM, Ruslan Zas

Todd, You should not try to bundle CouchDB. CouchDB relies on Erlang OTB and friends, it is not something like SQLite that you can embed. If you want some embedable solution look at Googles LiveTable thing or some other key/value store but even so, those embedable solutions will not present you

Todd, CouchDB (or Mongo, Riak, and other NoSQL alternatives) are excellent databases in the right situation. I haven't used on with LC, but have used CouchDB plenty. Their main benefits lie in A) no schema and B) replication. If you have no need of either, then it might be more work t
