About

WaSQL is a lightweight, flexible web development platform designed for developers who value control, simplicity, and power. It provides a streamlined environment to build, test, and deploy dynamic web applications using SQL and your choice of scripting languages — including PHP, Python, Perl, Lua, Node.js, and R.

At its core, WaSQL is built around a database-centric philosophy. Every aspect of your application — from authentication to dynamic pages to scheduled tasks — can be managed directly through SQL and scripting, with minimal overhead and no framework lock-in.

Key Features

• Database-Driven Architecture - Create and manage entire applications directly within your database. Tables can store not just data, but also code, configuration, and logic.
• Multi-Language Scripting Support - Use the scripting language that fits your project. WaSQL currently supports several popular languages, and it's built to be extensible.
• Integrated Development Environment - Includes a built-in file manager, code editor, SQL runner, and tools for managing users, permissions, cron jobs, and more — all accessible through a web interface.
• Customizable and Lightweight - WaSQL avoids heavy frameworks and unnecessary dependencies. It’s designed to be portable, easy to set up, and easy to modify.
• Security and Access Control - Offers user/group-level permissions, HTTPS support, and input sanitization tools to help you build secure applications.

Who It’s For

WaSQL is ideal for developers, database administrators, educators, or anyone who prefers to work close to the data and retain full control over application logic. It’s especially suited to small and mid-sized projects, internal tools, and prototypes — though it’s powerful enough to support production applications as well.
