Adminer is a tool for managing content in MySQL databases. Adminer is distributed under Apache license (or GPL v2) in a form of a single PHP file (currently approx. 160 KiB in size). Its author is Jakub Vrána who (during 2007) decided to develop such tool as an "light-weight" alternative to phpMyAdmin. Also, first webhosting providers started to include Adminer as MySQL managing tool into their portfolio of services.
