Right, in 2006 this was a target for quite an investment thanks to Google's SoC funds. We had a lighttpd server bundled with Kexi and it was all the way to expose Kexi projects to the web environment with a 'single click deploy' to server. Unmaintained since then, but we know how to do that properly and for the modern web.
In some way it's even better the 2006's solution isn't in use, we can start fresh. For this volunteers are needed: web developers/users/designer, not necessarily C++ hackers.
Some jquery/bootstrap components can make the data grids and forms work well.
- kmcb 11y agoOne challenge would be maintaining the native mobile platforms. Because of local storage limits on HTML5, I think you need to use more then the stock browsers on get it done.
- jstaniek 11y agoYes I believe so. how do you feel about SQLite for local storage? Kexi picked SQLite as the default backend in 2004, and it was a good bet. For native mobile there's Qt Quick for the GUI with which large part of Kexi is compatible. A database creation/handling layer has been extracted years ago and now it matures under name KDb: https://community.kde.org/KDb https://community.kde.org/KDb
- kmcb 11y agoI think SQLite would work well for most local storage application. It also helps that it is well known, well documented, and supported.
