Download MySQL Workbench which is a nice GUI for your MySQL databases. However I'd urge you to use PostgreSQL instead of MySQL and that isn't based on personal preference but real experience with MySQL and Django. MySQL doesn't have transaction support for schema modification which causes big head aches when releasing new features that require database schema changes. I'm sure you'll end of using django-south for this job, take my advice and use PostgreSQL and you won't be kicking yourself 6 months down the line. A good GUI for PostgreSQL is pgAdmin III. Works on windows and linux. One last thing. If you currently have the choice between linux and windows platforms then don't even consider windows. As much as I like windows, chances are you'll be running Django through Apache using mod_wsgi and if so you'll get better performance under linux. Hope that helps.
