You can use gravel, patio blocks, pavers. You need to dig down about four inches. Pour gravel in. Tamp down and add more gravel as needed to level. Pour two inches of sand. Lay patio blocks or pavers level. Sweep more sand in between to lock the blocks together.
You’ll have to have an “impervious surface” in the City Limits. Gravel doesn’t count, unless you have it in writing that it is OK with the City.
check if this requires a Permit, as my city does, but it’s not a well known fact, here.
Ive changed the order of my solution’s paragraphs to supplement William’s response:
If you want to find pavers that are strong enough to hold cars & trucks, then you could use a “polymer modified paver locking sand” and rent a vibrating machine to work it in. Then it gets washed down & turns into concrete - locking the pavers in.
Before that,
Youll need to excavate at least 4” of dirt, mechanically compact it, add 8” bender board edging, 4” of compacted gravel, sand and Visqueen. This must be done with the final grading in mind.
If you want concrete or asphalt then I can tell you how to be a concrete or asphalt General Contractor- but it’s way beyond this forum to teach you how to do that work.
You could put down gravel, it's fairly inexpensive and you can manually spread it.
