PouchDB for React Native
Database & Storage
PouchDB is an open-source JavaScript database that runs entirely in the browser and in React Native, designed to allow apps to store data locally while offline and synchronize it with CouchDB or other compatible servers when connectivity is restored.
Built on the Apache CouchDB protocol, PouchDB handles conflict resolution, incremental sync, and attachment storage — making it one of the most proven solutions for building offline-first React Native apps that need robust data persistence without a complex backend.
How PouchDB will help you grow and be more successful?
- Make your app fully functional without internet. PouchDB stores all data locally on-device and syncs in the background when connectivity returns — users create, edit, and delete data offline without any "no connection" states or lost work.
- Sync data across devices without building sync infrastructure. PouchDB's CouchDB replication protocol handles conflict resolution, incremental updates, and attachment sync automatically — you define what to sync and PouchDB manages the rest, even with intermittent connectivity.
- Get started in minutes with a familiar document API. PouchDB's
put,get,query, andallDocsAPI is intuitive for JavaScript developers — you have a working local database in your React Native app within minutes of installation, with full offline support from day one.
