Hello Gregor, I would love to get some ideas about authentication and node.js... I am new to all the stuff (CouchDB, node.js, node.couch.js for something like triggers using _changes).
I was looking at a row of CouchDB plugins for authentication (open-id, browser-id,...) but didn't try them yet - I have still some data to crunch about the basics. Why did you chose a node.js based way? Cheers, Yann On 27 February 2012 12:17, Gregor Martynus <[email protected]> wrote: > Miles, > > I build minutes.io with a similar approach.
