It is useful to enable CORS when using CouchDB for development, as this avoids the need for workarounds such as installing e.g. the CORS plugin in Chrome to bypass CORS issues.
As CORS is enabled/allowed on the Server Side, this needs to be enabled in CouchDB. This post details approaches to this. The easiest way (which is mentioned in the post comments) is just to do it in Fauxton. Just pick configuration on the left, and select CORS. You can enable for all domains (simplest for a closed development environment) or create a list. This github commit here can also do it but appears long winded compared to just doing it in Fauxton for simple cases.
