Prerequisites
Software
To use Arcos to create a database-driven web site, you require:
Hardware
Hardware requirements are those needed for your database application. See your database application vendor.
Web developer
As the person who creates web sites using Arcos, you need the following to use Arcos effectively:
- A working knowledge of Linux.
- A basic understanding of PHP (you don't need to be an expert, and you can probably learn all you need as you work through the tutorials).
- Shell access to your server. If you want to change the configuration of PHP or Apache to make them compatible with Arcos, you will need full administrator rights.
- A good understanding of how to use the particular database application that will be used for the web site.
- Full administrator rights for the database that you will create.
- A basic understanding of XML and HTML (you don't need to be an expert in these).
- If you want to write components, then you will need to be an expert with PHP.
