LiveCode Forums.

I'm shopping around for a WYSIWYG editor that might allow me to create an online flashcard website (it's more complicated than that - but we'll just leave it there for the sake of discussion). The website would needs to have the capability to allow users to login so that their flashcard progress can be saved & resumed at a later time. Does it seem like this project could be accomplished with LiveCode? (More specifically, I want to confirm that LiveCode projects can 1) be run as websites, and 2) store specific user data with a login.) I realize this is a fairly complex project, but I just want to confirm these basics before starting to learn how to code with LiveCode, and heading down the rabbit hole.) Thank you

LiveCode stacks can't be inserted directly into web pages. You can use LiveCode server to write web pages using LiveCode scripts, just as you can using PHP or other web scripting languages, but the stack itself and its hierarchy of objects and messages doesn't translate to the web. (When the HTML project is done this will be possible, but not yet.) You can, however, start using a LiveCode stack as a library so that its scripts are available to your web page. The display of images and so forth must be done in HTML.

You can store any data you want on the server however, it's just a matter of writing files.
