> It's doesn't have the featureset as PHPMyAdmin but it has a huge advantage in that it's a single PHP file you can upload, make the necessary changes, and then delete

The days of painfully slow FTP servers are long gone where "it's one file" would count as advantage.

This leaves a massively worse UX and featureset.

(We are using adminer for postgresql databases, because there's no better alternative, and it makes me wish phpmyadmin supported postgres every time I have to use it.)



Didn't postgresql community just annouced pgadmin4 lately and it seems to come with a modern webclient https://www.pgadmin.org/


Do any of these web-based DB tools come with autocomplete? I'd say that's the feature I value most when using desktop DB tools.


TeamPostgreSQL[1] is a pretty good web interface for Postgres. It has SQL autocompletion too, with completion for schema objects as well as SQL keywords. It is free.

Thanks for the tip.


Latest version of PhpMyAdmin does, but not nearly as good as for example "Microsoft SQL Management" does for MsSQL.

My favorite feature is generally the graphical database relation view. Without it i am something like 500% less effective.


Having a single file isn't an advantage from a speed perspective; the advantage lies in only having to upload a file, make a change and delete the file again. There's no install, no config, etc.
