A normal Full-stack development consist of af front-end, a back-end and a database. In FutureForms this is cut down to a front-end, a generic back-end and a database.
Here the sketch shows the Javascript application running in the client browser
and then sending SQL to the database.js back-end.
The database.js converts the SQL to the appropriate database driver
and sends the result back to the client.
FutureForms is primarily ment to be used for intra-net. SQL-statements are written in the Javascript application and then passed through the back-end directly to the database.
It is therefore necessary to protect with GRANT and other
security technics.
database.js can be configured to reject known keywords like
CREATE, DROP and TRUNCATE but it recommended to handle
the security in the database with GRANT.
In a standard full-stack setup you have the risk of a SQL-injection.
With FutureForms any SQL-statements are passed through even
the infamous "Robert'); DROP TABLE Sudents" so you have
to protect your database for this kind of statements.
