Now that we have the framework for our application built, let's talk about what needs to happen for our application to communicate with CouchDB.
We'll talk through the following points in this chapter:
Investigate the quick and easy way to interact with CouchDB, and talk about its shortcomings
Look at existing libraries to ease in PHP and CouchDB development
Install Sag and integrate it into Bones
Have our signup form create CouchDB documents and verify with Futon
Before we do anything, let's create a database that we'll use from this point forward for Verge. As we've done before, let's create a database using curl.
