Think twice about Wayland. It breaks everything!

Think twice before abandoning X11. Wayland breaks everything!

tl;dr: Wayland is not "the future", it is merely an incompatible alternative to the established standard with a different set of priorities and goals.

Hence, if you are interested in existing applications to "just work" without the need for adjustments, then you may be better off avoiding Wayland.

Wayland solves no issues I have but breaks almost everything I need. Even the most basic, most simple things (like xkill) - in this case with no obvious replacement. And usually it stays broken, because the Wayland folks mostly seem to care about Automotive, Gnome, maybe KDE - and alienating e

Automatic MySQL database setup from .env file contents

About

This script will automatically create a new MySQL database for you by reading your MySQL database name, host name, and user credentials from your .env file. This allows you to keep your database details safe, in a single location. Ideal for deployment and security.

Installation

1. Download setup_mysql.sh to your project root directory 2. You can modify setup_mysql.sh to set the following: - ENV_FILE (the relative path to your .env file -- e.g. ENV_FILE="./.env.local") - DEFAULT_MYSQL_HOST (the host name of your MySQL server -- e.g. "localhost") - DEFAULT_MYSQL_ADMIN_USERNAME (the administrator username of your mysql server -- e.g. "root" (note: this is typically NOT the MySQL username of your app). This should be no longer than 16 characters. Some versions of MySQL allow for longer lengths. You can modify the MAX_MYSQL_USERNAME_LENGTH variable to change this length. - DEFAULT_MYSQL_ADMIN_PASSWORD (the administrator password of your mysql admin user -- e.g
