Ditto to MK's comment.

Developers can somewhat tolerate this "alpha" state in pgadmin4. I would never push/recommend pgadmin4 to our customers.
Someone indicated pg4 get 20 compliments for every negative, I would offer there's 19 that simply decided it was not ready, and did not give your any feedback.
They just hope it continues to evolve, and pgadminIII continues to be available.

It looks promising, good luck.

No matter how hard you push the envelope, Ulitmately it's just stationary.

Cannot agree more.
Apart from discussion about chosen technology and related impacts (especially on user experience of desktop users), pgAdmin4 shouldn't be yet published as stable release. Since pgA4 remains feature-wise-incomplete comparing to pgA3, it should be called 'alpha'
and therefore it shouldn't be offered as replacement of pgA3.
In case it is intended to be something else than pgA3's successor, then shouldn't be called pgAdmin (to avoid confusion while comparing features).

with regards
