A significant project at Couchbase involved developing a sample application for demonstration at Couchbase Connect, aimed at showcasing the new features of Couchbase Server through a live keynote demo. The initiative was a collaborative effort designed to be both user-friendly and intricate enough to highlight Couchbase's capabilities. The GitTalent sample application was made publicly available by project lead Laurent Doguin, who also authored a comprehensive book detailing its design and code, available in AsciiDoc format on GitHub. Although the specific demo repository remains private for security purposes, the project, including the author's contributions in Angular and Java, can be accessed in the GitTalent repository. The sessions from Couchbase Connect 2016 are also available for public viewing, providing further insights into the application and its development.
