PouchDB is an open-source JavaScript database inspired by Apache CouchDB that is designed to run within the browser.

PouchDB is used for storing data on the phone in the CHT webapp to enable it to work offline seamlessly. It is also used as a library for querying CouchDB from api, sentinel, and the admin app.
