Interview with Damien Katz – Apache CouchDB

   "There’s a thing called CouchApps. CouchDB, being an HTTP server,
    can host applications directly, so you can write applications and
    forward the HTML, CSS, and JavaScript through CouchDB. When you
    point your browser at it, the browser comes alive and starts the
    JavaScript. It becomes interactive as you query and update the
    server and everything. When everything is served from CouchDB,
    that’s a CouchApp and you can replicate it around, just like the
    data"

   "You run these in your browser, and they’re just like regular web
    apps. The really cool thing is that once you install CouchDB
    locally, you can replicate these down and still run them even if
    you’re disconnected from the network. You have the exact same
    experience"
