Good evening everybody.
Im going to ask again this because the threads I read are already a bit old, in C++ and usually end with “in the future we will make it”, so let’s check if already is done. Also I hope to condensate the best information so people who comes after can check the info in just one place.
For web aplications usually we want to achieve three points:
1- Load & save data to a database.
2- Access the database from a server.
3- Load & save assets and loading later the on demand.
For the first and second points, in this forum you have several approaches. Is there any better blueprint way or plugin to make it?

About the second one, if the first one is not solved we cannot keep on. It’s not only about getting the file, but loading into the game. Some interesting links:
