toolBelt: Mautic scripts, config files and automations.

After several years running Mautic for clients, this is the way I have come up to facilitate most things and make my work easier, faster and above all, more secure, since it allows me to minimize human error.
I used to host these files on a file server, but over time it has become an interesting collection, so I have now moved it to GitHub instead.

toolBelt is a new repo with lots of little goodies:

I usually do these tutorials for Ubuntu, however, Debian is having a surge in popularity and for good reasons, in fact, in production, I am switching from Ubuntu to Debian, so I thought it was time to add Debian 12 to the Mautic installation tutorials…

Debian has been flourishing lately, some key changes in their view of the world and changes in what is acceptable in a FOSS OS are bringing, a much needed, breath of fresh air.

So, if you don’t need to support the latest hardware, and you enjoy reliability and stability, give Debian a spin for your next Mautic 5 installation, you won’t regret it!
