Replit Guide

I made a Replit guide for ModMail. No images but very descriptive and easy to follow.

Isn't this a bad idea due to Repl.it resetting their databases whenever they restart a container?

Read the document. I specifically put in why this occurs and how to fix this.

Why are you using MySQL, not the inbuilt SQLite?

• Due to how Replit operates, it resets the database to a previous version every few hours or so. The SQLite database is located directly on the Repl, but the MySQL database is external and therefore can't be rolledback. You could skip Steps 7-9 completely, but there are downsides if you have ModMail threads that last a long time, as the channels may be disconnected and you may lose logs.

@Dragory I'm done for now with the guide. I'd appreciate if you would review it and add it to help others!
