Follow these steps to install PHP Censor on your POP! OS running system.
The first step is to clone the PHP Censor repository from Github. Open up your terminal window and run the following command.
git clone https://github.com/php-censor/php-censor.git
This will clone the PHP Censor repository to your current working directory.
Navigate to the PHP Censor directory using the following command.

Once you have navigated to the project directory, install the required dependencies using the composer.
composer install
After installing the dependencies, create a new configuration file by copying the sample configuration file.
cp app/config-dist.yml app/config.yml
Once copied, we need to configure the database settings. Open the app/config.yml file using any text editor of your choice and add the database details.
# Database Configuration
database:
driver: mysql
host: localhost
name: php-censor
user: your_user
pass: your_password
port: 3306

After adding the database configuration details, we need to create the database schema by running the following command.
bin/console db:install
This will create the necessary tables in the database.
When everything is set up, start the PHP Censor using the following command.
bin/console app:build
This command will start the PHP Censor and you can access the application on the browser using the following URL.
