It’s all local…?

I’m talking a large local database; don’t want to really crush performance? I dunno… what would work for that? JS or Python?

- Ok, are we saying JS/Python? I don’t really like Php as an option. I’m replacing the Access stuff. -- nm - Will Hunting Aug 3, 09:43 1

- Yeah, I run PHP locally all the time - and depending on the intent of the database, it could be a stepping stone to making it more widely accessible. - Beryllium Aug 3, 09:33 1
