Connecting to local host

Hello, I started a new Phoenix App and went to connect to local host and get several of the following errors:

‘’’[error] Postgrex.Protocol (#PID<0.376.0>) failed to connect: ** (Postgrex.Error) FATAL 3D000 (invalid_catalog_name) database “bows_n_swaddles_dev” does not exist’’’

Any suggestions?

You did not initialize the db…

mix ecto.create

BTW: You can see this instruction on the terminal after you run mix phx.new
