For MongoDB lovers, PouchDB supports MongoDB-style querying via https://github.com/nolanlawson/pouchdb-find. MongoDB doesn't have the fundamental sync primitives that CouchDB has so I wouldn't expect a similar solution which supports MongoDB on the server.

While I've not dug into ForerunnerDB, it sounds like it is playing in the same space as PouchDB[1]. PouchDB is a JS database that works in the browser or in Node with various back-ends for data storage, syncs with CouchDB (or compatible, such as PouchDB Server) on the back-end, and currently uses map-reduce queries, though there is work in-progress to implement a MongoDB-like query language[2]. (This will match the Mango query language soon to be seen in CouchDB [3].) Plus I've been really impressed with the development team—responsive to issues, consistent releases, high code-quality. It's a great project! [1] http://pouchdb.com/ [2] https://github.com/nolanlawson/pouchdb-find [3] https://github.com/cloudant/mango
