Adminer
Jakub Vrana
A lightweight database administration interface implemented primarily as a single PHP file. It provides browser-based SQL execution and database management without the footprint of a larger application suite.
DBeaver
DBeaver Corporation / community
A cross-platform database client supporting SQL, data browsing, schema management, ER diagrams, and many database engines. It is one of the most widely used general-purpose database GUIs in the list.
HeidiSQL
HeidiSQL project
A Windows-oriented database client with strong support for MySQL/MariaDB and additional database engines. It provides query editing, data browsing, schema management, and administration features.
ILLA Cloud
ILLA Cloud
A low-code internal-tool builder that can connect to MySQL and other data sources. It combines database connectivity with application building and GUI-driven workflows.
LibreDB Studio
Sekoya Tech
A self-hosted database IDE that runs as a single container and is used from a browser, so the MySQL server does not need a port open to every workstation. It provides schema browsing, a SQL editor with schema-aware completion, ER diagrams and schema comparison with generated migration SQL, and it keeps its own state in SQLite rather than requiring a second database. MIT licensed. Alongside MySQL it reaches MariaDB, Percona Server for MySQL, TiDB, Vitess, StarRocks, Apache Doris, OceanBase and SingleStore over the same wire protocol, each measured against a live server with the per-engine results published.
mycli
dbcli community
A terminal client for MySQL that adds command completion, syntax highlighting, and a more interactive shell experience than the traditional MySQL CLI. It is especially useful for developers and DBAs who prefer terminal workflows.
MySQL Shell
Oracle / MySQL Team
Oracle's modern command-line client and administration shell for MySQL. It supports SQL, JavaScript, and Python modes and includes AdminAPI capabilities for managing MySQL InnoDB Cluster and related deployments.
MySQL Workbench
Oracle / MySQL Team
The official graphical environment for MySQL database design, SQL development, administration, and modeling. It remains a major desktop tool even though MySQL Shell has become the more modern administrative interface.
Ocelot GUI
Ocelot Inc.
A graphical client for MySQL and MariaDB that includes SQL development and debugging capabilities. It targets users who want deeper database-oriented tooling than a basic query browser.
OmniDB
OmniDB
A web-based database management environment supporting MySQL and other database systems. It focuses on interactive SQL development and administration through a browser interface.
