## Notes

phpMyAdmin is a web interface, written in PHP, for administering MySQL and MariaDB databases. The [project site](https://www.phpmyadmin.net/) describes it as designed for administering both over the web. The [setup documentation](https://docs.phpmyadmin.net/en/latest/setup.html) gives several ways to deploy it: a distribution tarball, Linux distribution packages, a Composer project, a git checkout and the official Docker image.

Its files are placed on a web server, which runs the application for each request. The interface is translated into many languages, including right-to-left ones.
