Question about putting up your website with a Database

Hello, I been using GitHub and Netlify to deploy my sites. They are using HTML, CSS, and Javascript. Now that I have learn PHP and MySql I want to use MySql however I have no idea how to deploy a website with MySql. So, I was wondering if anyone know if there is a way to deploy my website online using GitHub or Netlify or another way to deploy it free? If unable to for free then whats the cheapest and best option? I'm very new to this, so I'm up to learn ๐Ÿ™‚

There are a few options, like having a managed SQL database instance from a 3rd-pty service like ElephantSQL. You can also use something like Supabase, which is exclusively Postgres but should be similar enough for the simpler things. And there's also the option to rent a VPS and host the entire thing yourself. If you are curious about that you can start here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SBC_fU14_9o

use pdo with sqlite. the syntax is 90% the same. you dont need to deploy anything: its just a .sqlite3 file somewhere its good enough for a website with up to 100k visitors a day, according to their documentation if you used pdo, then the switch should be simple and quick if you use prepared statements (you should) then you also dont need to change the syntax
