A new DB, with a new query language that's like "SQL done right"? This immediately reminded me of EdgeDB: https://edgedb.com/ Is there anyone here who knows enough about these two products to do a compare/contrast? - Source: Hacker News / 11 months ago

Ok I see what you mean, yeah that's a pain. You could turn off MySQL in MAMP and run a separate DB app such as DBngin (https://dbngin.com/), which makes it easier to start/stop different DB's but only offers different versions of MySQL, not MariaDB. Source: about 2 years ago

Laravel has a built in server which leverages local PHP. I use that combined with https://dbngin.com/ for MySQL + Redis. Then frontend is ran with local node (via https://volta.sh/, also very quick). Source: over 2 years ago
