+
+The Problem we Try to Solve
+
+Why are we maintaining a list that is specifically for MariaDB, and not for MySQL and its forks?
+
+It's easy to find software, cloud services or educative resources for MySQL. Finding MariaDB related resources is a bit
+more difficult. The reason is simple: many authors of MySQL resources assume that, if something works with MySQL,
+it will work with MariaDB as well. And it is certainly true that MariaDB and MySQL are very similar. MariaDB was initially
+created by forking MySQL 5.1, and some effort to guarantee compatibility was made over the years.
+
+However, MariaDB and MySQL are diverging more and more over time. So, before saying that a MySQL resource works well with
+MariaDB, you should ask yourself some questions:
+
+Does the Resource Use Some MySQL Unique Features?
+
+In the worst case, a tool won't work at all, but this is not common. It is more common that some features of a tool can't
+be used with MariaDB. For example, using certain features of the community.mysql Ansible module will generate queries that
+fail with MariaDB.
+
+Does the Resource take Advantage of MariaDB Unique Features?
+
+Sometimes a resource works on MySQL, but it does things that could be done better by taking advantage of MariaDB features.
+For example, a GUI might not allow you to create a UUID or INET6 columns because these types are not supported by MySQL.
+An ORM for MySQL might not allow you to produce a DELETE ... RETURNING for the same reason. A monitoring system for
+MySQL normally won't show MariaDB-specific metrics.
+
+Is the Resource Adequately Tested with MariaDB?
+
+This might not matter much for a blog post. But software projects should be well tested with MariaDB. It's easy to overlook
+this necessity, because one might think that if the code doesn't return strange errors it works. But when a query fails, the
+application might not expose errors. After some time you might find out that some data are missing or inconsistent.
+
+Is the Resource Really "for MySQL and MariaDB"?
+
+As you can guess, sometimes resources "for MySQL and MariaDB" are mostly for MySQL, meaning that they are not thoroughly
+tested and optimised for MariaDB. Any of the problems listed above might apply in such cases.
+
+If you spot these problems in an open source application that officially supports MariaDB, please report a bug or contribute
+a bugfix.
+
+Our Solution: Awesome MariaDB
+
+When the MariaDB Foundation reached us proposing to sponsor the Awesome MariaDB list, we saw it as an opportunity to help
+tackle the above problem. But how exactly?
+
+Provide a List of Real MariaDB Resources
+
+In this list, whenever possible, you will only find resources that properly support MariaDB. It doesn't matter to us if it
+also supports MySQL or not, and whether the project's priority is MariaDB or not. We simply want to list "stuff that works
+well".
+
+Ideally, we aim to test all the listed resources with MariaDB. We temporarily list resources that we didn't test yet, but
+in that case we at least checked the documentation and the website for MariaDB support. When unsure, we also take a look
+at the source code.
+
+Whenever relevant, we indicate if a project is FLOSS software (Free/Libre Open Source Software), proprietary downloadable
+software, or a cloud service. When appropriate, we also indicate the supported platforms or programming language. These
+aspects are often very important when you're looking for software that solves a problem.
+
+Provide a List of Open Source Resources That Have Problems with MariaDB
+
+If a listed resource has problems with MariaDB, we aim to indicate this. We try to list such resources only if they are
+open source or free software. In this case, if you decide to use the resource, we warmly encourage you to contribute to
+the project, with the aim of improving MariaDB support by applications.
+
+There are various ways you can contribute improving MariaDB support:
+
+⟡ Report bugs describing them clearly, to help software maintainers to reproduce them.
+⟡ Contribute bugfixes.
+⟡ Report mistakes in documentation, technical articles, and even printed books.
+⟡ Write a guide on how to make an application work smoothly with MariaDB, for example in the form of a blog post.
+
+Knowledge Sharing
+
+Suppose you consult Awesome MariaDB, and you learn that a certain software doesn't work well with MariaDB because it
+doesn't use a certain SQL syntax. If you're a developer, you'll find out that this syntax exists, and what it is for.
+Hopefully, you will later use this information in your daily job to produce better code.
+
+Grow a Sense of Community
+
+All the activity listed in the previous point are normal and spontaneously happen in a community.
+
+Let's grow the MariaDB community to see an increase in these kinds of activities, and let's show support towards resources
+that aim to work well with MariaDB.

+
+(yes, adding a nerd Star Trek link was one of our primary goals as well)
+
+Contributing
+
+Contributions welcome!
+
+If you want to suggest a new resource, remember that this is Awesome MariaDB, and ask yourself two simple questions:
+
+- Does it work well with MariaDB?
+- Is it actually awesome?
+
+If both the answers are yes, you can add links through pull requests (https://github.com/Vettabase/awesome-mariadb/pulls).
+Once a PR is approved, we would appreciate if you take the time to notify the maintainer of the resource.
+
+If you find inaccurate information, obsolete information, or resources that are not maintained anymore, please report the
+problem by creating an issue (https://github.com/Vettabase/awesome-mariadb/issues), or fix it by yourself by opening
+a pull request (https://github.com/Vettabase/awesome-mariadb/pulls).
+
+If you contribute to Awesome MariaDB, we encourage you to add your name to the CONTRIBUTORS.md file.
+
+How to Thank Us
+
+If you're the maintainer of a resource we linked, we encourage you to show in your resource an
+Awesome mentioned badge (https://github.com/sindresorhus/awesome/blob/main/awesome.md#awesome-mentioned-badge).
+
+Simply paste this code in your README.md file:
+
+**!**Mentioned in Awesome MariaDB** (https://awesome.re/mentioned-badge.svg)** (https://github.com/Vettabase/awesome-mariadb)
+
+The result will look like the following:
