+
+Requirements
+============
+
+Web server
+----------
+
+Since, phpMyAdmin's interface is based entirely in your browser, you'll need a
+web server (such as Apache, :term:`IIS`) to install phpMyAdmin's files into.
+
+PHP
+---
+
+* You need PHP 5.2.0 or newer, with ``session`` support, the Standard PHP Library 
+  (SPL) extension, JSON support, and the ``mbstring`` extension.
+
+* To support uploading of ZIP files, you need the PHP ``zip`` extension.
+
+* You need GD2 support in PHP to display inline thumbnails of JPEGs
+  ("image/jpeg: inline") with their original aspect ratio.
+
+* When using the cookie authentication (the default), the `mcrypt
+  <http://www.php.net/mcrypt>`_ extension is strongly suggested for most
+  users and is **required** for 64–bit machines. Not using mcrypt will
+  cause phpMyAdmin to load pages significantly slower.
+
+* To support upload progress bars, see :ref:`faq2_9`.
+
+* To support XML and Open Document Spreadsheet importing, you need PHP
+  5.2.17 or newer and the `libxml <http://www.php.net/libxml>`_
+  extension.
+
+* Performance suggestion: install the ``ctype`` extension.
+
+.. seealso:: :ref:`faq1_31`, :ref:`authentication_modes`
+
+Database
+--------
+
+phpMyAdmin support MySQL compatible databases. 
+
+* MySQL 5.0 or newer
+* MariaDB 5.0 or newer
+* Drizzle
+
+.. seealso:: :ref:`faq1_17`
+
+Web browser
+-----------
+
+To access phpMyAdmin you need a web browser with cookies and javascript
+enabled.
