Which language for quick GUI app + sqlite database CRUD (2-4 tables). Java, Python? (Please no jokes like VBasic), some reference, source code to look on?
added:
First idea: 1 database SQLite (Win) + client GUI app (Win) clients table + orders table + others import, export database add, del, edit, etc. entries
Second idea: 1 hosted database (PostgreSQL ,MySQL) + web app client clients table + orders table + others import, export database add, del, edit, etc. entries
Thinking about Django, RoR or local Java(Netbeans), Python(wxPython+ORM).
???
Ruby on Rails will do simple CRUD operations very easily – although doing more than that can be a little more complex (would require some reading about RoR’s way of doing things). The latest version of Rails automatically uses sqlite databases, and in fact the whole database, and CRUD GUI code can be created with one command (
scaffold).If this is to be deployed then that can be a bit more difficult (although I hear that Capistrano is good) – but for local or intranet use then that’s what I’d do.
