How to create a PostgreSQL database
When you have PostgreSQL installed you can create a new database by opening the console with:
psql postgres
and then running the command CREATE DATABASE:
CREATE DATABASE databasename;
Don’t forget the semicolon ;
You’ll then see the newly created database by running the \l command.
