9. Systemd services - Createservice
Whenever I try to set up a database on a Linux machine I have been confused about how to configure the systemd service. I have also been in situations where I needed to create a service from a binary but always struggled. The struggle ends now.

For the project, I made createservice, which allows you to make a systemd service from any executable that will automatically start up on boot. Here I test it out on Prometheus:
