Hi guys!
You missed my favorite tool for working with SQL databases, Adminer (https://www.adminer.org/), Database management in a single PHP file. I find that the user interface is much more intuitive than Mysql Workbench or phpmyadmin. I don't have a Mac so I can't comment on Sequel Pro.
I have a git repository with the configuration that I like for Adminer. I find it easy to git clone this in the webroot of a site, do my SQL work, then delete the adminer folder.
God bless!
Frederick

Fredrick - thanks for the input. I'm not aware of this tool. It seems like a good tool to take with each project that does not require any additional software.
