Many apps need a database. To create one in cPanel:
- Open cPanel → MySQL® Databases.
- Under Create New Database, enter a name and click Create Database.
- Under MySQL Users, create a user with a strong password.
- Under Add User To Database, select the user and database, then grant ALL PRIVILEGES.
Note the database name, username and password — your application (e.g. WordPress) will ask for them, plus the host localhost. Use phpMyAdmin to browse or import data.
