Hello, I am looking for a FOSS frontend for simple DB app.
Use case:
- Let’s have a simple DB in MySQL
- I want the user to be able to browse via views
- Create new inserts via some forms
Does something like that exist?
EDIT: Thanks all for suggestions, looks like what I am looking for is just a regular web app however simple I might think it is, there is near 0% chance I can just grab something off the internet and use it in this case.
Phpmyadmin.
You can also deploy it easily with docker to get it running quick.
Not for OP.
I usually use Adminer instead of phpMyAdmin.
Adminer (formerly phpMinAdmin) is a full-featured database management tool written in PHP. Conversely to phpMyAdmin, it consist of a single file ready to deploy to the target server. Adminer is available for MySQL, MariaDB, PostgreSQL, SQLite, MS SQL, Oracle, Elasticsearch, MongoDB and others via plugin
I am looking for abstraction layer to hide DB internals. I am not looking for a frontend for DB, but for a “web app” which is only the DB itself. Like I said, I am not even sure something like that exists.
I don’t understand - you want a layer to hide database internals but also a web app that “is only the db itself”?
Pretty sure you’re looking for Django and specifically Django admin.
Dbeaver?
Are you looking for no-code back-end, like Pocketbase or Supabase?
Cloudbeaver is a universal tool for connecting and working with databases. MariaDB, MySQL, Postgres and many more. Multiusersupport and SSH tunnels are possible too. It is the Webversion of DBeaver. The community edition is free and sources are on github.
