Programming language and framework support at Hostinger depends mainly on whether the technology needs root access. Languages and frameworks that require root access to install, configure, or run — Python, Django, Flask, Java, and ASP.NET — are supported exclusively on VPS Hosting. Technologies that don’t need root access — Laravel and jQuery — run on Web and Cloud hosting plans, while ReactJS is covered individually below along with its own requirements. For the specific resource limits of each plan type, see parameters and limits of hosting plans in Hostinger<\/a>.<\/p>

Is Python supported at Hostinger?<\/h2>

Root access is required to install and update Python, along with any libraries and dependencies your projects may need. Since Web and Cloud hosting plans don’t provide root access, Python is supported exclusively on VPS Hosting<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>

VPS is a self-managed hosting solution, where you are responsible for installing and configuring Python, along with any related scripts, applications, or packages.<\/div>

If you’re interested in using Python on VPS Hosting, you can do so on any of our available Linux-based operating system templates<\/a>.<\/p>

Is Django supported at Hostinger?<\/h2>

Django is a popular open-source web framework that uses Python to build dynamic websites and web applications quickly, with many features and tools pre-built.<\/p>

Python is a requirement for running Django, and root access is needed to install and update Python along with any dependencies the framework requires. Since neither is available on Web and Cloud hosting plans, VPS Hosting<\/a> is the supported option<\/strong>.<\/p>

For a faster setup, Hostinger provides a pre-made VPS template: Ubuntu 22.04 64-bit with Django and OpenLiteSpeed<\/a>. This template automatically installs the OpenLiteSpeed web server alongside Django, includes easy SSL and RewriteRules setup, and lets you update files directly without going through the built-in development server. This setup runs close to three times faster<\/strong> than Django on Nginx with Gunicorn!<\/p>

Is Flask supported at Hostinger?<\/h2>

Flask is a lightweight Python web framework that requires minimal setup, making it a strong alternative to Django for building web applications or RESTful APIs.<\/p>

Since Flask depends on Python, and installing and managing Python requires root access, Flask is supported exclusively on VPS Hosting<\/a><\/strong>. As with Python and Django, VPS Hosting is self-managed, so you’re responsible for installing and configuring any scripts, applications, or packages Flask needs. Any Linux-based operating system template<\/a> can be used as your starting point.<\/p>

Is Java supported at Hostinger?<\/h2>

Java and JavaScript share a similar name but serve different purposes:<\/p>

JavaScript is a client-side scripting language used for front-end web development. It runs in the browser and adds interactivity, form validation, and dynamic content to a website. JavaScript is fully supported on<\/strong> all Hostinger hosting plans.<\/strong><\/p>

Java is an object-oriented programming language used to build applications such as desktop software, web servers, and Android apps. Running Java servlets and JavaServer Pages (JSP) requires root access to install and configure the necessary permissions. Since Web and Cloud hosting plans don’t include root access, VPS Hosting<\/a> is the supported option<\/strong> for Java-based applications.<\/p>

Is ASP and ASP.NET supported at Hostinger?<\/h2>

Since all Hostinger servers are Linux-based, ASP is not directly supported.<\/strong><\/p>

As an alternative, ASP.NET applications can be launched by converting them to ASP.NET Core and hosting them on any VPS Hosting plan<\/a><\/strong>. Here is a useful guide: How to Launch an ASP.NET Application<\/a><\/b>.<\/p>

Which Laravel versions are supported at Hostinger?<\/h2>

Laravel can be installed directly through the Auto Installer<\/a> on Hostinger hosting plans<\/strong>, including the latest 12.x version. Set your PHP version<\/a> to 8.2 before installing.<\/p>

Other current versions, including 9.x, can be installed by selecting them from the version dropdown list in the Auto Installer. Versions older than 9.x are available but not recommended, due to security reasons. Laravel 8 requires a manual installation<\/strong><\/a> instead of the Auto Installer.<\/p>
