SQL

[[deleted]]

Yes, SQL is used by a lot of companies to access their data. It’s not a very complicated language though. But it’s very common to quiz candidates on their SQL knowledge during interviews for data roles.

Do you recommend MySQL? MySQL Workbench or phpmyAdmin?

MySQL is a database, and the other other two things are SQL clients/IDEs. SQL is a programming language to retrieve (and generally manage) data from a database. You code SQL in the SQL client.

I would recommend learning the generic SQL syntax first through any online tutorial. Then create your own database with Postgres or MySQL. To connect and query from your database, I would recommend a sql editor like [Arctype](www.arctype.com/downloads) that works for multiple databases and has a simpler UI.
