This month in Linux Voice.

The open source ecosystem has a solution for every problem – in fact, it often has many solutions. You might need a powerful and full-featured tool to build a powerful and full-featured application, or you might just want something that is fast and easy to implement. When it comes to database systems, the options run the spectrum, from enterprise-ready tools like PostgreSQL to less intimidating alternatives like MariaDB. But then, if you really want to keep it simple, you could always just use LibreOffice. This month we fire up LibreOffice Base for a simple home database project: organizing a personal music collection. Also this month, we take a crack at eg, a tool that lets you call up command syntax examples at the command line, and we show you how to use Inkscape and a tool called Paperfold to create arty 3D objects with folded paper.
