I've begun planning a SQLPage Training Course

Published: Friday April 11, 2025

I've begun planning a course on SQLPage that I intend to distribute with Udemy.com.

In this course, we’ll take a look at the many built-in components SQLpage offers, and put them to use in a few real-world projects:

  1. We’ll start off by creating simple pages with SQLpage—just enough to show you how things come together, and how to use the simpler components that SQLPage offers.
  2. Then we will discuss the intermediate and more advanced components included in SQLPage, which offer more options and configuration.
  3. After that we will discuss a few advanced topics related to form submissions, cookies, variables in SQLPage, and handling file uploads.
  4. We will then discuss one of the most important topics in SQLPage - database migrations. This process allows you to control database changes over time, all managed directly by SQLPage.
  5. Next, we’ll build an analytics dashboard that pulls data from an example corporate MySQL database. You’ll see how quickly you can turn database queries into visualizations and dashboards.
  6. We’ll also create a data API that provides information in JSON format—handy for integrating with other services or front-end apps.
  7. After our API, we will discuss one of the most important aspects of internet security: User Authentication, logins, and storing passwords safely.
  8. Finally, we’ll tackle building a complete application. This is where things get really fun: we will allow users to sign up, login, submit articles, vote on the ones they like, and leave comments—just like a mini social site!
I'm very excited about building the course and I'll post updates here as it progresses!
