Navicat Premium on Mac
Navicat
Navicat is a powerful database management application available on all plaforms including iOS. Since I’ve used Mac, I have been finding an DB managing application with beautiful GUI and powerful features and Navicat is the one.
Beautiful UI
Navicat was born with a beautiful and user friendly UI. Users can easily find the feature they want.
Make data visible
When I was uing Linux, I have to type mysql -u blahblah
and select * from blah blah
. Of course I should know what is being done when doing a query, but, 「simple is better than complex」, using Navicat feasibly makes the contents in database visible. Just click click click :)
Most important
Navicat is able to generate a Entity-Relationship Diagram from an existing database. It helped me a lot when I was writing my bachelor’s degree thesis !
Other features
Unlike phpMyadmin or MySQL workbench, navicat is a ALL-in-ONE application and supports any type of DB engine you use. Once you used Navicat, you wouldn’t want to use any other db manager anymore !
