Awesome!

Would be cool to learn how you are approaching Wordpress on Flynn. I have poked around at writing an asset backend that talks to Flynn's blobstore because a family member wanted me to host their Wordpress site but haven't quite gotten around to it.

We merged the MariaDB database appliance a little while back which took care of the other major roadblock to getting Wordpress to "just work" on Flynn.

I'm `jpg@freenode and josephglanville on Github, hope to see you around. :)

That one was more a "I wonder if I can.." than a required thing so I didn't fully give it a go. I was giving Bedrock[1] a try for it which may have complicated matters further trying essentially to learn two new things at once.

I imagine my thought process at the time was "Flynn is like Heroku and Heroku is all about 12 factor apps. Bedrock seems to be a 12 factor WordPress, I'll try that!". It also somewhat matched up with the rest of what I do in Laravel so the standard composer, PHP, .env, MariaDB vibe. I'll give it another shot over the weekend, I don't recall what stopped it working.

Major thanks on adding MariaDB support by the way, I know mysql and the likes get their fair share of flak but it's what I've used for the past decade or so, more comfortable with it than postgres :)
