Completely free and very powerful database manager. Works good on Linux using Wine (using 5.18 at this moment). As of 5.11 supports: PostgreSQL, MySQL, MSSQL, SQLite
Very easy program, good functionality, but a very many of bugs, low stability, frequent crashes (v 9.x).
[Edited by gennadysmagin, July 19] The program is still extremely unstable. Falls and crashes happen all the time.
A very good database management tool for MariaDB !
Can't Generate Mock Data
Free app with friendly interface
Browse and edit data. Easy to use. Simple connections to DB. Wonderful tool !
light weight, configurable UI, and less bugs than navicat ... though less functions, but they are not so important and not so irreplaceable ... and the most important : free !!!
MySQL Workbench did not support MariaDB PHPMyAdmin is slower DBeaver has more functions but large
thanks HeidiSQL
