#22definitely going to check this out in depth soon, and build some "dreamcode" with it to test it out!

That’s the Hoodie Spirit <3 :D

#24I think promising "we want to enable you to build complete web apps in days" might be promising too much. Programming is difficult, there is no silver bullet, and a different data store certainly won't change that. Interesting choice of couchdb. Any reasons for that compared to the alternatives?
hoodie strikes me as more of a local optimum rather than a global one. In other words, it's not a universal silver bullet and wouldn't be suitable for all tasks. But for the tasks for which it is suited, perhaps it can eliminate a lot of boilerplate.

We have our own little lightweight version of PouchDB that isn’t really a version of PouchDB. It works well for now, but we might migrate to Pouch later.

we currently use localStorage. But we <3 PouchDB, just didn't get to it yet. Shouldn't be hard to change that, or to build your own store wrapper providing the same API

Anyone trying for a global maximum will fail :)
We designed Hoodie with very few, but very specific use cases, to get the core right. The more use cases we’ll add, the broader it will get, but we have no intention of pleasing everyone.

#28This looks pretty optimal for a little app I'm building. I've been bolting bits to Sinatra and using it as a half-API-half-template engine for a frontend I built, this looks far cleaner. I'm curious about security though, what's stopping a user from plugging in random data via the console?

Yeh we should definitely work on this when you are in town :) the storage part of pouch is nearing being complete and stable, the server infrastructure was next on the list (after docs etc)

Nothing, all they can do is fuck up their own data.
