Quick questions
Before you start.
Do I need Node or Composer on the server?
No. The installation package contains vendor/ and all built files. You only need Composer and Node (pnpm) locally if you develop yourself.
SQLite or MySQL?
SQLiteDatabase in a single file, without a separate database server. Ideal for small and medium-sized websites: easy to back up and to move.sqlite.org (opens in a new tab) is the default – one file per website, nothing to set up, backups while running. MySQLWidely used database servers for websites. MariaDB is a largely compatible, free continuation of MySQL.mariadb.org (opens in a new tab) can be configured per website.
Does it run on shared hosting?
On any hosting with PHPWidely used programming language for websites. KLXM Studio is written in PHP and therefore runs on almost any common web hosting.php.net (opens in a new tab) 8.4 as FPM, HTTPSThe encrypted variant of HTTP: pages and form data are transmitted protected by TLS. Recognisable by “https://” in the address.en.wikipedia.org (opens in a new tab) and SSH access; Plesk is recommended. Without SSH much works in the admin, but updates and backups are much easier with SSH.
