  1. MySQL

    MySQL Server, the world's most popular open source database, and MySQL Cluster, a real-time, open source transactional database.

    You can find detailed installation instructions in the docs. We will choose the Docker installation and use a MySQL database as a persistent data store.

  3. Bugzilla

    Official repository for the Bugzilla bug tracking system. Report bugs to https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=Bugzilla&format=__default__ . Main website:

    I tried a few open source bug trackers, but from what I found they look either very old (https://www.bugzilla.org/) or super heavy (https://sentry.io). Bugsink provides a nice middle ground so I encourage you to give it a try.

  4. Sentry

    Developer-first error tracking and performance monitoring

    I tried a few open source bug trackers, but from what I found they look either very old (https://www.bugzilla.org/) or super heavy (https://sentry.io). Bugsink provides a nice middle ground so I encourage you to give it a try.

  5. Puts Debuggerer

    Ruby library for improved puts debugging, automatically displaying bonus useful information such as source line number and source code.

    1.) Go to sliplane.io and sign in with your GitHub account 2.) Click on "Create Project" and give it a name of your choice. I will choose "Bugsink" as a project name. 3.) Click on the project and hit "Deploy Service" 4.) If you don't have a server yet, click on "Create Server" and choose a location and server type. The default server type is plenty strong to run MySQL and Bugsink and you can scale it up later so I recommend starting with the default. Choose a name for your server and hit "Create Paid Server". 5.) Once the server has been created and shows up in the list, you can select it to continue 6.) Choose "MySQL" from the pre configured image list 7.) On the deploy settings screen, you can apply some optional settings: Disable "public" for more security, change the database name to "bugsink" and rename your service "Bugsink MySQL". These settings are optional but recommended. 8.) Hit deploy and wait for the deploy to finish until you see a green dot lighting up, which indicates that your MySQL database is ready to accept connections.
