fake2db vs pgweb: What are the differences?
Developers describe fake2db as "Create test databases that are populated with fake data". Generate fake but valid data filled databases for test purposes using most popular patterns(AFAIK). Current support is sqlite, mysql, postgresql, mongodb. On the other hand, pgweb is detailed as "Web-based PostgreSQL database browser written in Go". This is a web-based browser for PostgreSQL database server. Its written in Go and works on Mac OSX, Linux and Windows machines. Main idea behind using Go for the backend is to utilize language's ability for cross-compile source code for multiple platforms. This project is an attempt to create a very simple and portable application to work with PostgreSQL databases.
fake2db and pgweb can be primarily classified as "Database" tools.
fake2db and pgweb are both open source tools. It seems that pgweb with 5.94K GitHub stars and 419 forks on GitHub has more adoption than fake2db with 1.98K GitHub stars and 103 GitHub forks.
