Any recommendations to set a couchdb instance?

Hi, I am looking for recommendations to set couchdb to make sure me and my team can use it over the web, as we are working in different parts of the world right now. What would you recommend? I'm not very experienced in self hosting, so I'm not sure if I could set my couchdb to be accessible to my team mates from my pc or set a home server and use it like that? or maybe I should just use a host and have couchdb installed there and access from there. Please let me know any ideas as I am kind of a total noob with this stuff XD

Hello There! I only tried with docker instances, but you will need some knowledge about networking if you plan to self host and open ports on your router. https://hub.docker.com/_/couchdb/

Unfortunately I don’t have experience with managed services to recommend. I also used it on a cheap VPS with the docker method with good results in the past. That would avoid all the self hosting complications.

This topic is something I would like to address in the future to make it easier to collaborate. Maybe another multiuser method that is not realtime but works with common sync apps like dropbox or even git. Any kind of feedback is welcome

Thanks!
