What are the best practices for configuring PHPMyAdmin on a server, especially when installing components individually without XAMPP?

When configuring PHPMyAdmin on a server without using XAMPP, it is important to ensure that the necessary PHP extensions are installed and that the configuration file is properly set up. Additionally, it is recommended to secure PHPMyAdmin by setting up authentication and restricting access to specific IP addresses.
