| 40 <p>Right now there isn't anything really shiny or flashy to see; | |
| 41 just the <a class="intra-wiki" href="tests.html">test suite</a> | |
| 42 and the <a class="intra-wiki" href="big.html">semi-large data set | |
| 43 test</a>, though they're not particularly exciting. In the future, | |
| 44 we'd like to make | |
| 45 CouchDB's <a href="http://couchdb.apache.org/screenshots.html">Futon</a> | |
| 46 client work entirely using BrowserCouch as its backend instead of | |
| 47 a CouchDB server, but that's a ways away.</p> | |
| 48 | |
| 49 <p>If you'd like to see some code samples of what the BrowserCouch | |
| 50 API currently looks like, check out the <a class="intra-wiki" | |
| 51 href="#js/tests.js">annotated source code for the test suite</a>. | |
| 52 You can also read the <a class="intra-wiki" | |

| 54 for more on BrowserCouch's implementation.</p> | |
