Add Friend to MySQL Database

In this tutorial, I’ll show you how to add friends to a MySQL database. This will allow a user to follow other users. We will then save that relationship in the database. Then, a user would be able to see posts from any of the users that they’re following.

This is a continuation of our MusicTalk app. An app like Facebook, but people talk about music.
