A development stack is just a collection of tools, languages, frameworks, build processes, APIs and so on that are used together for developing a digital product.
i would like to use mySQL as a development stack for my mobile application , since using javascript ,HTML and CSS are the most efficient stacks but they can not be used , a static website created with HTML, CSS and Javascript is not responsive – meaning that it doesn’t resize to fit my device. It won’t rescale as I resize the browser.
the reason behind using mySQL as a development stack is I want to make a dynamic website, or a site that uses a database to serve data to the browser from the server that it’s stored on, i need some kind of database management system, like SQL or MySQL. Or use a noSQL database that isn’t as structured as a SQL database. Then we need a language like PHP to work with the database. And a development stack that makes sure everything works together.
A content management system that creates dynamic websites like WordPress can be run on a development stack like LAMP – which integrates Linux, Apache, MySQL and PHP.
