RE: WebSites made using Livecode.

I use Html==>JS==>Async xhttp request. The xhttp request is fielded by LC Server and is cors compliant so LC Server doesn't even need to be on the same web server. (this allows you to test html pages from desktop without a web server) LC server returns html in a json packet. The async JS

Re: WebSites made using Livecode.

Thank you all very much for the solutions provided and for the advice. How wonderful it is to belong to a club like Livecode: The community is incredibly kind and generous. As you say André, it is not important if Livecode is a minority language: It is very powerful. I can create a Desktop,

Re: WebSites made using Livecode.

Hi Heriberto, I've read this thread and want to share a bit of experience of using LC as a server engine. I'm part of the team that builds http://www.himalayanacademy.com which is probably the largest site built with LC Server around. I'll try to frame this email in the topics I've seen you

Re: WebSites made using Livecode.

Hi Hery, You can set up your Livecode Server to work with your database directly on the same computer. You do not need PHP at all for anything. In fact if you look at your server log files you will see that China hacker bots are heavily searching for PHP and when they can’t find it they even try

Re: WebSites made using Livecode.

Hi Seen, I'm talking about using Livecode server. I think you mean Livecode HTML5. I'll explore that option (it seems very usefully too), but although I do a lot of work with JS, I wanted to try Livecode Server. I have used it a bit and it looks very reliable. We have four dedicated servers

Re: WebSites made using Livecode.

Hi Sean, So, as far as I know, you use PHP as a middleware between the database and the Livecode code app. Isn't it? I guess you do that because of security reasons to not expose the database. My main goal is to use Livecode instead of PHP to create a small website (about ten forms and some

Re: WebSites made using Livecode.

Hi I’ve been creating a website built in LiveCode but NOT LC Server. I opted to using php for server end calls as we connect into a mySQL database on the server. The message path is LC > tiny amounts of JS > a small PHP library of function calls > JS message transport > LC. LC does all the

Re: WebSites made using Livecode.

Hi Dan, The customer cares about the backend, because he wants to be sure he will find a livecode hosting company in the future. We will host the web page into our own servers. We currently offer PHP, Python  and LiveCode hosting. I'm honest with my customers and I told him about Livecode

Re: WebSites made using Livecode.

I'd be surprised if the client cares at all about the websites backend, you might be better off picking a modern frontend framework (bulma,react,vue etc) and showing examples of websites using it. As for the backend, there are some great flat file CMS's that could be managed with livecode scripts

Do you know revIgniter, the Livecode Framework for Websites? https://revigniter.com/ "Many websites have been successfully built with revIgniter including the presumably largest Hindu website in existence." https://www.himalayanacademy.com/

Hi Richard, Thank you very much for your rapid response. My customer asks me about a popular site created with Livecode because they would like to make sure that if I get hit by a car, or we have a problem, another company could maintain their website. I mean, they would like to be sure of

Re: WebSites made using Livecode.

Some of our customers are using Wordpress and some have websitet that were created the "normal" way by hand or with tools like Dreamweaver or Rapidweaver. But they are also using Livecode server on their sites for special tasks, e.g. webform processing, generating and providing downloads,
