The Couchnode tutorial shows you how to build a simple web application that uses Couchbase Server as the underlying data source. The sample application works with data in the beer-sample bucket. That's the same sample bucket you used in the Hello Couchbase example. If you didn't run the Hello Couchbase example, make sure the beer-sample bucket is installed before you start this tutorial.

The sample application displays the beers and breweries in the beer-sample bucket. It also provides methods to edit and manage beers and breweries.

The full source code for the Couchnode tutorial is available in the beersample-node repository from couchbaselabs on GitHub. You should read through all of the source code in the sample application because it contains additional code that is not described in this tutorial.
