Have you had experience setting up and using systemd in your projects?

Yes, in several projects I configured systemd to manage services on Linux. I usually created unit files with the .service extension, where I specified the service description, startup command, dependencies, and auto-start parameters. This allows for convenient control of starting, restarting, and stopping applications.

An example of a simple unit file for a C++ service:

[Unit]
Description=My C++ Application Service
After=network.target

[Service]
ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/my_cpp_app
Restart=on-failure

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

After creating the file, you need to run systemctl daemon-reload and enable the service with the command systemctl enable my_cpp_app.service for auto-start. This approach simplifies managing applications and integrating them into the system.
