What is a database and what does it?

A database is a digital place where data can be stored in a structured and organized manner. You can retrieve and use data in a database. You can create different collections with a lot of data. A database will store your data permanently. It stores the data you receive in a form, instead of having it on your local server.

I use MongoDB, which was recommended by school. In my database I have a collection of 'Accounts' in which I store the Username and password of the users. So that they have an account and can start searching for their babysitter. If the username allready excist in the database new users won't be able to use that same username.
