Welcome
Hi everyone. This is my welcome post to get this blog started. It is intended as a learning experience cum tutorial about SQLite Development. For the uninitiated SQLite is a lightweight (in size but not power) database engine that can be embedded in your applications.
In many circumstances it can be used in place of a more traditional database server such as SQL Server or MySQL. Certainly if you are thinking of developing an application using Microsoft Access as your DB then stop and think again. SQLite could be the engine for you.
My recommendation for now is have a look at the SQLite website to get a flavour of the features and power of SQLite. Coming soon will be series of posts designed to provide a start on writing applications that use SQLite. I am just beginning myself so as I learn I'll try to pass on my findings.
