The application in this repository demonstrates how to:

• Connect to a MariaDB database usingmysqli
• Execute queries (SELECT,UPDATE,INSERT andDELETE) to managecontact data (like a digitalrolodex)
• Use prepared statements

The application relies on a single database (rolodex) that contains a single table (contacts). You can find the necessary SQL for setting up the environment inschema.sql.

After you'vepulled down this repository, follow these steps to get the app up and running:

1. Update the database configuration settings inconfig.php (which is used across the app) to point toyour MariaDB database.

   Example configuration:

   $databaseHost ='127.0.0.1';$databaseUsername ='user_name';$databasePassword ='********';$databaseName ='rolodex';

   Note: Check out theconfig_skysql.php file for an example of how to connect toMariaDB SkySQL.

2. Run the application using thebuilt-in web server.

   $ php -S localhost:5000
