When I was first setting up some mysql databases, I used the ever-handy OSX app CocoaMySQL. It was great and did everything I needed to do, but when I came back to relive old times, I was summarily dissed. For whatever reason, it just doesn’t work with my new webhost. I read an explanation somewhere, but it doesn’t really matter to me—the bottom line is that it just doesn’t go. So after a bit of searching, I found a wonderful open-source program for managing MySQL databases called, aptly enough, YourSQL.
It’s got a very simple, straightforward interface which allows you to create, modify, and delete databases, tables, columns and more from a nice, familiar OS X interface. It’s great for beginners, but if you feel the need, you can easily run SQL commands at the click of a button. For most people’s every day database needs, YourSQL looks to be a great replacement for Navicat or CocoaMySQL.
