phpPgAdmin is a fully functional web-based administration utility for a PostgreSQL database server, licensed under a free and open source license. Similar to phpMyAdmin, which phpPgAdmin was also based on, it is written in PHP and can be accessed with a web browser. PhpPgAdmin requires a web server with PHP, such as Apache or Nginx, and is therefore cross-platform. The project originally started as a fork of phpMyAdmin, to provide PostgreSQL users with comparable services to what MySQL users had been using. However, in 2002, the code was re-written from scratch, and is now a completely different code base.
