I am a data scientist. When I needed to learn how to build a web application, Couchapp was the first thing I learned. I chose it because it was the only thing I could really understand. Viewed as a system, it's a lot simpler to have one thing storing your application code and data, instead of two or more things which must communicate with each other. After my first few apps, I learned to use Backbone, d3, etc. in my Couchapps. I find the results better than what I can get creating an R-Shiny or Flask application. In summary, the Couchapp architecture makes it easier to get started programming web applications, without having to learn some middleman API.
