  • How to build Software as a Service (SaaS) Notes application with mySQL/MariaDB and Apache in 300 lines of code

  • Podman 4.3 on Artix Linux: Fix initialization issues
    It is not so difficult to install Podman on Artix Linux, based on Arch Linux and systemd-free. It's because pacman brings core packages: podman and qemu-base of QEMU. - Source: dev.to / over 1 year ago
  • Podman 4.3 on Artix Linux: Install
    Thanks to their package management system, pacman delivers Podman with a simple command line. - Source: dev.to / over 1 year ago
  • Pacman Wrapper for C++/Node
    Pacman is a front-end to libalpm ((library for Arch Linux Package Management) which is written in C, so you should be able to use the library from C++. See https://archlinux.org/pacman/ for information and links to the source code. Source: about 2 years ago

    Also, the previous commenter said to do so without the Arch Wiki, they said nothing about man pages, the git documentation, or the Pacman homepage at https://archlinux.org/pacman/. Source: about 2 years ago
