From the course: Database Foundations: Application Development

What you should know

- [Instructor] In this course, we're going to take a look at a couple of examples of how you can integrate a database server with a web server in order to provide end users a way to interact with a database over the internet. To do this, we're going to add in some new technologies to what we've already learned about relational databases over the previous courses in this series. Namely, we're going to be working with HTML, CSS, PHP, and ASP.NET. Now I don't expect you to have any prior experience with any of these languages. We're not going to be writing any code. Instead, we're going to take a tour and read through some working examples to see how all the pieces come together to make your databases accessible online. To follow along on your own computer, you're going to need to have Docker installed. This will allow us to add web servers to the database servers that we've been working with. You can download Docker for Windows, Mac OS or Linux at docker.com/products/dockerdesktop. You'll also need a text editor. You can either use Notepad or Text Edit or any other plain text editor that you prefer. Personally, I'm going to be using Visual Studio Code. I like this text editor because it shares some common design attributes with Azure Data Studio that we've already been working with for our database development. If you'd like, you can download your own copy from code.visualstudio.com.
