PostgreSQL: How to Install

Installing PostgreSQL depends on your operating system. On Linux, package managers like apt (Debian/Ubuntu) and dnf or yum (Red Hat/CentOS) provide official packages. For example, on Ubuntu you can run:

sudo apt update
sudo apt install postgresql

On Windows and macOS, installers are available from the PostgreSQL website. After installation, initialise the data directory, start the service and use psql to create users and databases. Remember to secure postgresql.conf and pg_hba.conf according to best practices.
