Hello,
Does PostgreSQL have a graphical environment for management or is it only managed through CLI?

There are, but make your life easier and learn to use psql:

https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/app-psql.html

It ships with Postgres and runs close to the database. Saves you the time tracking down the issues that the GUI transformation code introduce.



Thank you.

Adrian,
Much as I love it, psql is not what I would call a management tool?

Why not?



All the nice buzzwordy things: dashboards, alarm bells, point-and-click drop downs for config values (with tool tip descriptions of what they might do), coffee dispenser.  Things some feel they need in a management tool.
