Desired Feature:
We are trying to install BookStack on a generic PHP Hosting and problem is there is no generic SQL Schema to be applied. On remote hosting we can't run php artisan ... so It would be nice to have some web based installer (like wordpress and others...)

At least it would be nice to include SQL to apply manually to hosted DB.

Thanks for opening this issue. Removal of composer as an install requirement is already open under #161 so I will alter the title of this issue to focus on artisan.

We'd also need to provide simple update options since these also rely on artisan.

Artisan can be called from code so we can use this but it needs to be protected from external abuse.

Since there has been little interest for this in the last few years, and since removing reliance on using the artisan cli will take a fair bit of effort, I'm going to close this off.
