SQLite, PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, Redis — provisioned in seconds. No Docker. Connection string auto-injected into your server.
Installing PostgreSQL on Windows used to mean downloading an installer, running through a wizard, setting a password you'll forget, configuring pg_hba.conf, and hoping the service starts on boot. Or pulling a Docker image, writing a docker-compose.yml, mapping volumes, and debugging why the container can't see your network.
In Donk, you click Provision. Pick the engine. Name your database. It's running in seconds. The connection string is auto-injected as an environment variable into any server you link it to. Your ORM picks it up from DATABASE_URL and you're writing queries.
DATABASE_URL environment variableVideo: 30–40 seconds. Provisioning a PostgreSQL database, linking it to a Django server, running a migration.
