nuManagement

Description

nuBuilder enables you to make any application that want or need with the least amount of effort and learning.

nuBuilder expects you to be online for using it's applications if Google Charts are used in it.

nuBuilder Forte is in its 4th version of nuBuilder and is a browser-based tool created by nuSoftware for developing web-based database applications.

nuBuilder uses either MySQL or Maria DB databases and gives its users the ability to do database operations like:

  • Search
  • Create
  • Insert
  • Read
  • Update
  • Delete

Alternative to MS-Access

nuBuilder provides an ideal replacement/upgrade from MS-Access. It won't get slower and slower as you add more records, unlike MS-Access.

Import your MS Access tables into Acces2NuBuilder and cached here (2014-03-06) and get them into nuBuilder.

Easy To Learn For End Users

nuBuilder uses an Uncluttered Interface which makes it very easy for new users to find there way around.

Use your existing PHP and MySQL skills

phpMyAdmin Workarounds for various versions

  • NuBuilder4 uses phpMyAdmin located in the nudb folder. It sports phpMyAdmin v5.0.2 which needs PHP 7+ as it uses declare(strict_types=1); in nudb/db_structure.php line 8 and errors out in line 22.
  • Replacing it with phpMyAdmin v4.5.5.1 (using the same config.inc.php file) expects PHP 5.5+ and can be operational (tested in PHP 5.4.27) if in file nudb/libraries/common.inc.php the line 46 is commented out:
die('PHP 5.5+ is required');
  • Replacing it with phpMyAdmin v4.0.10.17 (2016-08-16) works well with older PHP versions as it needs a minimum of PHP v5.2+ only but the config.inc.php must include the lines below:
/* Select mysql if your server does not have mysqli */
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['extension'] = 'mysqli';

PHPMailer version

  • By default NuBuilder v4 uses PHPMailer 6.0.2 released on 2017-11-02 and the current version in it's branch is 6.2.0 used in NuBuilder v4.5
  • To support older versions of PHP 5 to 7, it is advisable to use PHPMailer v5.2.28 released on 2020-03-19
