  3. Create a new database: Click on the "Databases" tab and enter a name for your new database. Click on "Create" to create the new database.
  4. Create a new user: Click on the "Users" tab and then click on "Add user". Enter a username and password for the new user and make sure to select the database privileges for the user. Click on "Go" to create the new user.
