Our trainer Kore will introduce you to the world of *CouchDB*: In three detailed
sessions he will show you what the hype is all about, while providing you with
hands-on information on how to use this *NoSQL* solution for your own products
and environments.

.. note:: Use your chance to meet the experts at JavaScript-Days. With Kore and
    Jakob being present full time during the event, you have a great opportunity of
    meeting with us.

After covering all the basics, like using JavaScript to create map-reduce based
views on your data, he will cover more advanced topics like eventual
consistency, sharding and replication. Finally, Kore will provide a dedicated
session on how to create JavaScript applications, which are solely run from
within a CouchDB. Those CouchApps are a great way of consolidating all your
application needs into one technology. Use your CouchDB infrastructure, to
distribute, store, sync and manage your application in one place.

Of course, I'll also give sessions myself: The first one will provide you with
a detailed understanding of how Scopes and Closures are working in the heart of
JavaScript. As important as this knowledge is for any JavaScript developer, as
misleading are some of those concepts in the language. Showing detailed
examples, filled with in-depth knowledge about the inner workings of JavaScript
engines, this session will provide you with all the information you need to
understand Scopes and Closures once and for all.

During another session, I will present a currently hot debated topic inside the
JavaScript community: *Dependency Management*. I will present different ways of
automatically managing the dependency hell JavaScript projects can produce.  On
the server side, as well as in the browser. Finally, I will talk about
*CoffeeScript*: I will show you some of the features this alternative approach
to writing JavaScript provides, as well as presenting you some of the pitfalls,
to enable yourself to decide what all the fuzz is about.

Besides the sessions presented by Kore and myself, there will be 12 more
workshops by leading experts from the community. We have been able to acquire
Christian Johansen, the author of "Test-driven JavaScript development", 
creator of Sinon- and Buster.js, Hans-Christian Otto, known for his workshops
on ExtJs and mobile web development, Bastian Feder, Thorsten Rinne and
Sebastian Springer as your trainers for those fully packed three days.

JavaScript language itself.
