-At development time it is recommended to use the integration tests (whch have their own `main` method) to run the application. This will allow you to make changes to the content and see the changes immediately. You can run the integration tests from your IDE or using the command line. Because there are multiple main classes for different database configurations, you have to choose one, e.g:

 A similar setup is provided for MySQL and PostgreSQL if a persistent database configuration is needed. Note that whenever the database type changes, the app needs to run with a different profile: `spring.profiles.active=mysql` for MySQL or `spring.profiles.active=postgres` for PostgreSQL. See the [Spring Boot documentation](https://docs.spring.io/spring-boot/how-to/properties-and-configuration.html#howto.properties-and-configuration.set-active-spring-profiles) for more detail on how to set the active profile.
