BaseX is very light-weight. It can be run and used in many different ways:
# BaseX comes with a [[GUI|Graphical User Interface]] that offers you marvelous tools for managing, querying and visualizing your data and write complex writing sophisticated applications in XQuery.# You can start BaseX as a standalone [[Command-Line Client]] if you prefer to work on command-line line and in the terminal, or want to do batch processing.# The [[Database Server]] is the right choice if you have multiple users or clients, or if you use other programming languages and if you don’t require HTTP services, and if you tend to communicate with BaseX on a technical level.
# The [[Web Application|HTTP Server]] provides [[REST]] and [[WebDAV]] services. With [[RESTXQ]], complex web applications can be built, and the embedded [[DBA]] application allows you to work with BaseX in the browser.
BaseX can also be embedded as a Java library in your own applications.

In addition, the '''ZIP Package''' and the '''Windows Installer''' contain extra libraries for RESTXQ web applications and other advanced features, [[Start Scripts]], and BaseX's the [[DBA]], a browser-based database administration interface ([[DBA]]).If you unzip or install BaseX, the target directory will contain the following directories:
If BaseX is started via the start scripts or the Windows icons, all JAR files in the {{Code|lib}} directory and its descendant directories will be added to the class path.
