Keith, I use LC Server on the on-rev server. It is already setup and the support from Heather/Robin is the best! I personally use regular standard issue binary stacks for everything out of habit. These same stacks are also used in my apps. This is what I love about LC server, it allows me to use my libraries on the server and in apps. What other programming language does this?
If you are doing web pages then look into revIgniter. For a web service vanilla LC scripts do the trick.

I've struggled to retain/regain my old local Sites, web server and LC Server on my home Macs. So, I was thinking of embarking down the script-only stacks route, using an on-rev LC-Server instance to do any web-services heavy-lifting work server-to-server, on behalf of client apps that use either LC desktop or simple html forms. My html & css 'hackery-pokery' has been on Coda2 to date, but its replacement, Nova, still lacks any LiveCode autocompletion. I may need to learn a new text-editing based IDE tool. Thanks for the Atom suggestion - I see that there's a LiveCode language pack available that includes LC Server, so that may be a better place to play than VS Code, etc. Thanks & regards, Keith > On 12 Oct 2020, at 15:01, Ralph DiMola via use-livecode <use-livecode@lists.runrev.com> wrote: > > Keith, > > As a follow up...
