Organization Description

We're developing phpMyAdmin, a MariaDB/MySQL web interface. It supports most MySQL features, is widely used by database administrators, and is well supported by hosting providers.

phpMyAdmin is a free and open source tool written in PHP intended to handle the administration of MariaDB and MySQL with the use of a web browser. It can perform various tasks such as creating, modifying or deleting databases, tables, fields or rows; executing SQL statements; or managing users and permissions.
