+Role Name
+=========
+
+Role that installs phpMyAdmin. Optionally depends on apache/nginx and php-fpm. I do not force the dependency because it could be installed together with other PHP applications.
+
+Requirements
+------------
+
+Some PHP package dependencies are listed in the documentation at <https://docs.phpmyadmin.net/en/latest/require.html#php>.
+
+Role Variables
+--------------
+
+A description of the settable variables for this role should go here, including any variables that are in defaults/main.yml, vars/main.yml, and any variables that can/should be set via parameters to the role. Any variables that are read from other roles and/or the global scope (ie. hostvars, group vars, etc.) should be mentioned here as well.
+
+Dependencies
+------------
+
+No Galaxy dependecies right now
+
+Example Playbook
+----------------
+
+    - hosts: servers
+      roles:
+         - { role: phpMyAdmin }

+License
