Test Remote Connection to MySQL Database via TablePlus

Now, you can use your favorite database client. If you do work with multiple databases, I would highly recommend using TablePlus. First select “Create a new connection…”.

Then, press “Test” and if you see the fields turn “green” you are good to go.
