A large amount of script apps are designed to work with MySQL since it’s user-friendly, it works really well on a server and it is universal as it can function with common web programming languages (Python, PHP, Perl, Java) and on various web server OS (Windows, Linux, UNIX). There are hundreds of scripts that use MySQL, including popular ones such as Moodle, Joomla™ and WordPress.
