+### Creating detached instances

+You can create and start new Prisma Postgres instances in detached mode (running in the background) using the `--detach` flag:
+
+```terminal
+npx prisma dev --name mydb --detach

+
+This creates a new instance and immediately starts it in the background, similar to `docker run`. This is particularly useful for automated workflows and CI/CD pipelines where you need instances to run without interactive terminals.
