Is it possible to build a POS (point of sale) web application (local host) for my shop with only client side languages (HTML, CSS, JS) with integrated database (mysql, sqlite, etc.)?

  • Check the nodejs framework. – Wiktor Zychla Mar 13 '15 at 06:25
  • like balaG said, you won't be able to keep everything client side only. but I do disagree on his point with little interactive pages. angularjs could be a solution for your application. maybe a MEAN stack (meanjs.org) is also something to check out – Carnivorus Mar 13 '15 at 06:51

If you want to keep data in any database like MySQL, then you have to use some Server-Side technology (PhP, ASP.NET or JSP etc.).

By using client-side languages only static and little interactive pages can be created.

So my answer is NO. You can not create a site for your shop by using only client-side scripting languages if you want to maintain database.
