Thanks, Christian,
That looks great. I probably won't cross this bridge for a month or more, but this is what I was looking for.
And for Windows and Mac, just tell them to install the databases from .zip files or whatever?

Hi Jonathan, hi Hans-Jürgen,
If you are using our Windows installer, the NSIS installer configuration file could be enhanced to additionally copy database files to the target installation directory [1,2].
Does this help? Christian

Excellent - I think this is a common interest of those developing

And "as-a-service-optionally-local" might pass as a BaseX Solution

Ideally, I would like to be able to create an installer that would add
BaseX and a set of databases to a user's system. How hard would it be to do that?
