Mark, I have one leg in kanso and one leg in erica right now. Both great couchapp tools, erica is a really simple one and should be easy to redistribute once built on windows. You would not get the build steps that kanso has, but there are a lot of 'build tools' that might fill the gap
ps. I just finished work to support 2 things in erica. 1. Support for a simple webstyle project. So attachments first. It reverts back to the traditional couchapp style if detected (or forced). So you couch push a simple folder with nothing more than an index.html 2. Support for pushing to garden20, equivalent to kanso. To get those features, you can build my branch here: https://github.com/ryanramage/erica/tree/webstyle > Correct me if I'm wrong, but garden20 is only for publishing kanso apps. And now erica apps :) > While this is intriguing it doesn't solve my problem of running kanso. If you need an easier setup, erica might win Ryan On Thu, Oct 18, 2012 at 3:47 PM, Mark Hahn <[email protected]> wrote: > Thanks, I'll check out garden20. > > On Thu, Oct 18, 2012 at 2:45 PM, Gabriel Mancini > <[email protected]>wrote: > >> you just need couchdb, but to host a kanso app its cool use a >> http://garden20.com/ >> >> >> >> On Thu, Oct 18, 2012 at 6:34 PM, matt j. sorenson <[email protected] >> >wrote: >> >> > node is required to run kanso in your development environment, but >> > certainly not required to serve up the resulting couchapp (couchdb is the >> > only requirement there)... >> > >> > so, it sounds like you just need a well-supported dev environment; have >> you >> > considered just setting up a virtual machine locally (e.g. ubuntu via >> > virtualbox, or similar)? >> > -- >> > *matt j. sorenson* >> > * >> > * >> > >> > On Thu, Oct 18, 2012 at 4:26 PM, Mark Hahn <[email protected]> wrote: >> > >> > > I want to develop a couchdb app in kanso.
