+My next development has MySQL as relational database, then at OpenBSD I will use  [MariaDB](https://mariadb.org/ "MariaDB Server is one of the most popular database servers in the world. It’s made by the original developers of MySQL and guaranteed to stay open source. Notable users include Wikipedia, WordPress.com and Google").
+
+## Installation
+
+```sh
+# pkg_add mariadb-server
+```
+
+I fully recommend following instructions from `/usr/local/share/doc/pkg-readmes`

+
+Additional steps that I did:
+
+Install databases:
+
+```sh
+# mysql_install_db
+```
+
+Start MariaDB:
+
+```sh
+# /etc/rc.d/mysqld start
+```
+
+Finnaly make MariaDB secure:
+
+```sh
+mysql_secure_installation
+```
+
+## Configuration
+
+To start MariaDB at booting time:
+
+```sh
+# rcctl enable mysqld
+```
+
+If you don't want to start at booting time:
+
+```sh
+# rcctl start mysqld
+```
+
+## MariaDB Documentation
+
+At the MariaDB website you can find a lot of [documentation](https://mariadb.com/kb/en/ "MariaDB Knowledge Base")
+
+## Creating a database for development
+
+```SQL
+CREATE DATABASE generic_development;
+```
+
+```SQL
+CREATE USER x7cc@localhost IDENTIFIED BY 'password';
+GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON  generic_development.* to 'x7cc'@'localhost' WITH GRANT OPTION;
+```
+
+Enjoy! 😄
