How do I get this sqlite3 command to work on my Chromebook? When I type this in on my Windows machine it's not working either. Are there other steps I need to take first?

As a developer, on your development machine, if you use sqlite even infrequently, then no.

Anyone else, probably, but then why would you use this tool if you have no need for sqlite?

I showed that it doesn't get more hassle-free than this and doesn't even require connectivity (which might be a problem "on some devices" or "in some locations").

He might just have summarized everything as "hassle of creating the database". Not everything on internet is supposed to be a debate with highly and carefully develop…

You are also making an assumption, though. That person might not have known "sqlite3 mydb.db" is all you need to create a sqlite database.

I'd highly suggest getting a designer, or somehow thinking with more of a product mindset? I fail to understand what it does quickly, which shouldn't happen to a potential customer.

11k daily users is very good even without this so-called "product mindset"!

>my Chromebook

LOL

>my Windows

If you're the kind of person who even knows what SQL, SQLite or hell even a database is, you already know SQLite runs on pretty much anything.

This method is not available on all devices and does not support sharing or collaboration. The website, however, works on any platform and allows working together in a single shared database.

how does collaboration works for SQLite, since the db is embedded?

Uhm, by allowing multiple people to connect to the same database through a webapp like this?

The paid subscription lists this feature: > No auto-renewal That's not subscription.

Sure it is. A subscription's defining trait is continuity of access contingent on periodic renewal, whether manual or automatic. People subscribed to things way before online payments or even credit cards were common. A modern, if niche, example is Tarsnap.com. Once in a while, I get an email from Colin telling me to pay up if I don't want my backups deleted.

Where do I type that in on my iPad?

Some people might not have computers but still want to learn?
