Persistent MySQL Storage

By default, whenever you bring down the Docker network, your MySQL data will be removed after the containers are destroyed. If you would like to have persistent data that remains after bringing containers down and back up, do the following:

1. Create a mysql folder in the project root, alongside the nginx and src folders.
2. Under the mysql service in your docker-compose.yml file, add the following lines:

volumes:
  - ./mysql:/var/lib/mysql
