Hi Ronny, For me “a-ha” moment was to realise that design document is just an ordinary CouchDB document, so it can be created and updated with any http client: curl, httpie, whatnot. I’ve writed up a gist with basic demo on using curl for that: https://gist.github.com/eiri/70e3a44421ade7f01d4394ef08f80091
Key moments to notice there that while updating design document it must have revision and that value of “map” is a string, but it need to be a proper javascript, as it’ll be evaluated as such. So yes, it is easily possible to manage design documents without third party tools. Sorry, I don’t know the answer on your third question, I’m more of a command line guy.
