I am looking for a way to embed a CouchDB instance in an OSX application, so the user does not need to install anything. Is it possible?
I looked at CouchDBX, but it seems he completely refused and could not find a replacement.
I think you can watch TouchDB as a suitable option https://github.com/couchbaselabs/TouchDB-iOS
This allows you to create it inside the application, and the user does not need to do anything.
