Database management in a single PHP file
To be fair it's the actual releases that are in a single file.
Development evidently happens in the traditional sense with the project in a nicely defined tree.
The build process looks pretty gnarly, but it works! https://github.com/vrana/adminer/blob/master/compile.php

Show HN: Outerbase Studio – Open-Source Database GUI
> browser based
For whatever reason, this is the main limiting factor, because local software can be really good, for example:
DBeaver - pretty nice and lightweight local tool for a plethora of databases https://dbeaver.io/
DataGrip - commercial product, but you'll feel right at home if you use other JetBrains products https://www.jetbrains.com/datagrip/
DbVisualizer - really cool tool that helps you explore messy schemas https://www.dbvis.com/
HeidiSQL - haven't really used this myself but the version graph on the page is cool https://www.heidisql.com/
There's also some solutions that are specific to certain databases, like:
pgAdmin - for PostgreSQL https://www.pgadmin.org/
MySQL Workbench - for MySQL/MariaDB, sometimes a bit buggy but I really like the reverse engineering and forward engineering functionality https://www.mysql.com/products/workbench/
(out of respect for my own sanity, not mentioning SQL Developer, even though it sort of works)
Adminer - one of the somewhat rare web based solutions for the likes of MySQL/MariaDB, actually pleasant to use as long as you use it securely, this I think is a good example of web based DB tools https://www.adminer.org/
