Latest Update
What's New
- ✨ Highlights:
- Backup & restore: save your projects and all MySQL/MariaDB and PostgreSQL data in one zip, and restore it with one click. Every restore saves your current state first, so it can be undone.
- Security update: PHP on Windows updated to 8.5.12 / 8.4.27 / 8.3.36 / 8.2.35 (CVE-2026-109618, CVE-2026-109619). phpMyAdmin and Adminer now ask for your database password instead of logging in automatically.
- New Components page and simpler Settings: change database passwords, LAN mode warnings for weak passwords, theme switch in the sidebar.
- Fixes: missing pages now show 404 instead of the welcome page; PostgreSQL works on Ubuntu 22.04; PHP-FPM restarts correctly on Linux and macOS.
