MySQL

Combine filters →

MySQL is a relational database server and one of the engines most commonly provided by web hosts, from shared hosting to managed database services. Supporting it means a tool can run on a host that offers MySQL with no extra service. Many projects that support MySQL also support MariaDB, its fork, though some features differ between the two. A record holds this value when its documentation lists MySQL as a supported database.

80 projects support MySQL, listed alphabetically. Mostly web frameworks, content management systems and servers and proxies, of 12 categories in all. 122 records do not record this field, and cannot appear here either way. For 317 the question does not apply. Counts only projects with momentum; the full list has the rest.

What is the best web software for MySQL?

We don't know. A portfolio, a shop and a documentation site need different things from their software, and so does a team of one against an agency. Nobody pays to be listed here and the order is alphabetical.
