Your database is managed by the file 'controller'.php that is located in /applications/controllers/ directory together with default files in the folder (index.html & welcome.php). An example of a controller file is 'Examples.php' that is provided by the Grocery-CRUD tutorial.

In /applications/views/example.php contains the list of  tables in your database

to run the demo application:

/localhost/grocery-crud-demo/index.php/examples/
