phpMyAdmin is an open source tool written in PHP intended to handle the administration of MySQL over the
World Wide Web. It can perform various tasks such as creating, modifying or deleting databases, tables, fields or
rows; executing SQL statements; or managing users and permissions.
History
Tobias Ratschiller, then an IT consultant and later founder of the software company Maguma, started to work on a
PHP-based web front-end to MySQL in 1998, inspired by Peter Kuppelwieser's MySQL-Webadmin. He gave up the
project (and phpAdsNew, of which he was also the original author) in 2000 because of lack of time.
By that time, phpMyAdmin had already become one of the most popular PHP applications and MySQL
administration tools, with a large community of users and contributors. In order to coordinate the growing number of
patches, a group of three developers, Olivier Müller, Marc Delisle and Loïc Chapeaux, registered The phpMyAdmin
Project at SourceForge.net and took over the development in 2001.
