But isn't this more of a PouchDB benefit? The whole offline-apps in the browser thing, I mean.
Yes, the server probably runs CouchDB, but it could also be Cloudant or CouchBase etc. None of what is mentioned there is a USP of CouchDB itself.
CouchDB is the only one of those that a non-profit could deploy at scale without paying loads of money for licenses or support.
There's PouchDB Server also.
Of course there is loads more, but this is the stuff that keeps us devs going.
