Strapi comes with a full featured Command Line Interface (CLI) which lets you scaffold and manage your project in seconds.
To run this project, it is necessary to have an active MySQL instance as the data source. Fortunately, there is a convenient way to start a local MySQL instance using docker-compose. You can initiate it by executing the following command:
docker-compose --file docker-compose.local.yaml up
This will start the MySQL instance within Docker on localhost:3006. Additionally, it will also start the adminer instance, which serves as a Graphical User Interface (GUI) for connecting to MySQL and exploring the database.
Simply visit http://localhost:7000 in the browser to access the adminer GUI.
