Explore AnotherRedisDesktopManager: Free, Beautiful Redis GUI with Cluster Support
This guide introduces AnotherRedisDesktopManager, a free and visually appealing Redis GUI that supports cluster connections, walks through installation from GitHub, explains key features such as dark mode, command console, and versatile data operations for strings, lists, and hashes, and demonstrates practical cluster usage.
RedisDesktopManager
Previously I used RedisDesktopManager, but its UI became outdated and the official site now requires payment.
AnotherRedisDesktopManager
Found on GitHub, this free client has a beautiful interface, over 8K stars, and supports Redis clusters.
Usage
Installation
Download the installer from
https://github.com/qishibo/AnotherRedisDesktopManager/releasesand double‑click to install.
After installation, click
New Connectionto connect to Redis; the
Clusteroption is available, unlike the old client.
Dark Mode
You can enable dark mode in the settings for a sleek appearance.
Command Line
Open the Redis console by clicking the
Redis Consolebutton.
Redis Data Operations
Use
Add Keyto store data; five data structures are supported.
Store a
Stringkey, which can be displayed as plain text, JSON, or deserialized format.
Store a
Listkey, allowing table‑like manipulation of list items.
Store a
Hashkey, enabling spreadsheet‑style editing of hash fields.
Cluster Mode
Set up a Redis cluster (e.g., via Docker) and connect to any node on ports
6391~6396. Connect first to
6391.
After storing a key in the cluster, connect to another node
6392and the key is visible.
Deleting the key removes it from all nodes, confirming proper cluster operation.
