Hmm, this has me thinking I could build a single-file executable with a self-contained database or that connects to the server. And with a little work I might be able to launch the system browser pointed at the Djngo. And with this I might have a simple web based replacement for all the Access utilities floating around here?
I know about Electron and Tauri and all that but this seems like an intriguing possibility to work on.

- klausnrooster 4y agoTunney-jart, ape, etc are so impressive... I'd like to see some real competition for Access, at least on Linux and/or BSDs. Because Access is untouchable in it's space. Because it _is_ the space. redbean looks very tasty indeed. If it was the foundation of an 'Access-on-GNU/Linux/BSD' that would be very cool.
- parlortricks 4y agoYou mean Access as in MS Access? Why not give Libre Office Base a try? Seems like an ok alternative
- mutagen 4y agoI really should try redbean. Python / Django is attractive for the batteries included aspect and some uses I had in mind might look for those batteries but a quick search shows some of those are available for Lua so maybe I should get a proof of concept together.
