No humor there. I meant that Photon is a very nice demonstration of what can be 
done as a couchapp.


Best regards and thanks again,

Really impressive work, Ermouth!

Thank you very much for this great contribution to the community 
(as both a very useful tool and a convincing demo) !!!

Do you mean that you completely skipped version control? As for us, we couldn’t 
do that.

Don’t take it personally, Ddoc.me is really interesting (and I think I will use 
it to teach CouchDB). But there is still a need for a command line tool for 
teams that require traceability, visibility or testability.

Thanks Johs. This is an interesting project. However a must-have for us is :
- to keep our git-based folders (with the same structure if possible), 
- to use our favorite editors (MacVim for me, other editors for collaborators), 
- to push the app with a command line (so that it can be launched by Travis.ci 
for example).

As a matter of fact, we’re quite happy with python couchapp! 

The only problem with it is that its installation takes 16s on Travis.ci and 
that it is regularly broken and hard to reinstall on MacOS X updates.

Good morning Couchappers,

> anyone who want to share experiences and preferences?

Is there a plan to install one implementation automatically with CouchDB? That 
would be great.

However the chosen version should pass tests to be sure that it implements all 
the features that are used by people on a daily basis. I had bad experiences 
earlier when I tried to replace python couchapp tool with alternatives.
