LiveCode Server

Execute embedded tags in your Web pages on a server or run server side processes. Use the Server Deployment pack to:

  • Support Cloud applications
  • Process Web forms and other web related input
  • Provide back end support for multi-user games
  • Work with on-line databases
  • Create on-line learning resources
  • Build blogs, CMS systems or social networks
  • Create customized email marketing

...and more

Unlike other deployment packs, LiveCode Server runs code facelessly on a server and uses the same English-like language core and syntax that is key to our LiveCode product range. This means that much of the code that is written for a different platforms can also be used directly on LiveCode Server. This allows server and application development to take place in a fraction of a time than it normally takes with other languages.

Platform Specific Feature Set

In addition to the main cross platform feature set, the Server Deployment Pack has the following platform specific features:

Add server side LiveCode to HTML web pages. Execute LiveCode contained on server web page.

Organize applications like PHP but with LiveCode syntax.

Use a file hierarchy rather than single stack files.

Access form data

Use post and get to send information over the internet.

Commands to manipulate HTML output.

Put header and content data directly into the browser display.
