There are numerous GUI (graphical user interface) client applications that you can use to manage PostgreSQL databases. These client applications enable you to view databases, run SQL queries, and more.
One of the most popular and widely used PostgreSQL client applications is pgAdmin III. This application is free to download and use, and there are versions available for several operating systems, including Microsoft Windows, macOS, and Linux.
To download pgAdmin III, visit http://www.pgadmin.org/download. Follow the instructions for your computer's operating system to install the application.
After you have downloaded and installed pgAdmin III, you can use it to manage your PostgreSQL databases. To do this, follow these steps:
