A wide range of script apps are designed to work with MySQL since it is convenient to use, it works really well on a hosting server and it is universal as it can function with famous web programming languages (Python, PHP, Perl, Java) and on several server Operating Systems (Windows, Linux, UNIX). There are literally thousands of scripts which use MySQL, including really popular ones for instance WordPress, Moodle and Joomla™.
