Adminer (formerly known as phpMinAdmin) is a tool for managing content in MySQL databases (since version 2 also in PostgreSQL, MS SQL, SQLite and Oracle databases). Adminer is distributed under Apache license (or GPL v2) in a form of a single PHP file (around 400 KiB in size). Its author is Jakub Vrána who started to develop this tool as a light-weight alternative to phpMyAdmin, in July 2007. Adminer got some attention in 2008 when it made it to the CCA finals at SourceForge. Also, first webhosting providers started to include Adminer as MySQL managing tool into their portfolio of services. In 2012 Adminer got coverage on Linux.com for the second time. The project's priorities, according to its author, are (in this order): safety, user-friendliness, performance, functionality, and size.
