So I am building a website..

It's a masonry style product review website and I'm looking for a way to store all of my reviews in a db and use infinite scrolling so I don't have hundreds of reviews on one page.

Does anyone know of a simple solution for this.. I am hoping the database can simply output html to inject back into my website.

I think you should look into WordPress. It will make working with a database simpler, since you won't need to know SQL or any database languages to utilize one.

You also have the ability to change the look of the site with free themes, which WordPress makes very easy. And there is of course the option of creating you own themes, but depending on your current knowledge of html and php that might be a little ways off for you still.

If WordPress sounds like a solution you might be interested in, there are great tutorials here for getting started + more :D

Yeah, I have tinkered with Wordpress and it would solve my problems, but I can build awesome custom pages with jquery, html, css and javascript.

I am hoping to avoid PHP and starting from scratch with my current site. I searched long and hard for a solution and I am contemplating using a solution like firebase. This should fill in alot of the gaps in my knowledge..
