Is PHPmyAdmin proprietary (developed only for use with NFS.net, or is it a third-party thing that's used by other hosts?

www.000webhost.com -- I've been working with this site for Mod. 3 and 4. Very similar to NFS, but you don't have to pay!

Below is a link to a helpful tutorial page that defines some of the types. None of the examples in the lecture are text, but in the challenge the data is primarily text which lead me to believe that the type should be text. I receive an error message when doing this. As I searched to find troubleshooting help I found that the varchar type can also include text.

It is not only available elsewhere, it is (like everything we are using this semester) open source. I would guess that the majority of hosts that offer MySQL also have PhpMyAdmin to help you administer it. If at some point you decide to install XAMPP on your own system, I think it is included there as well.
I considered doing MySQL from the command line, but that is unnecessarily complex. Since PhpMyAdmin shows you the SQL queries it is doing, it's not a bad way of becoming more familiar (gradually) with SQL.
