pgAdmin 4 v1.0 Beta 1 - Soft Release

pgadmin-hackers subscribers,

I'm pleased to announce that I've just released pgAdmin 4 v1.0 Beta 1
for testing. You can find more details on the website:

Announcement: https://www.pgadmin.org/

Documentation (WIP): https://www.pgadmin.org/docs4/dev/index.html

Downloads: https://www.pgadmin.org/download/

Bug tracker: https://redmine.postgresql.org/projects/pgadmin4/issues
(requires a PostgreSQL community login)

pgAdmin 4 is a complete rewrite of pgAdmin, written in
Python/Javascript, and deployable as a desktop or web application.
There's a more modern look and feel, improve UI and workflows, and
more flexibility and reliability than pgAdmin 3. I've included a few
screenshots on the website announcement to give an idea of what it
looks like.

Please download and start testing and reporting (non-duplicate - see
the tracker above) issues ASAP so we can get ready for release with
PostgreSQL 9.6. The beta 2 release will coincide with PostgreSQL 9.6
beta 2 and will stay in sync from there on. I've released Windows and
Mac builds which include the desktop runtime, an early PIP wheel which
just includes the web code, and a source tarball. RPM and DEB packages
(split into web app, desktop runtime and docs parts) are still in
development. For bleeding edge code, please see the GIT repo:
https://git.postgresql.org/gitweb/?p=pgadmin4.git;a=summary

As this is a "soft" launch, I intend to give it a day or two before
announcing more widely (or formally)! As such, any show-stopper bug
reports would be appreciated ASAP.

Finally, I must thank everyone involved in getting us this far - it's
taken a team of more than 15 people at EDB something like 10,000 hours
of effort in total, plus those contributors from the community who
weren't held to strict project plans but did play a vital role
regardless! For more info on the team and features, please see my blog

Thanks, Dave
