I have been working on SQL Explorer, an open source, Django-based reporting and query tool for (gulp!) almost ten years. It's a tool that fits just right for me and many others, and I love and use almost every day. Write SQL, share results, do some analysis, get insight. No surprises. A live demo instance is here (no login or anything required): https://demo.sqlexplorer.io/ And here's a fairly unprofessional, but very enthusiastic, video tour: https://sql-explorer.s3.amazonaws.com/Sql+Explorer+5.mp4 The UI is constrained enough that there's very little to learn,…

I built DataRamen, a local-first SQL explorer that helps you get the data you need fast, without writing repetitive queries every time. You run it locally from the CLI (no cloud version yet), connect your databases, and you're ready to go.

Last year we launched ChartDB OSS (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44972238) - an open-source tool that generates ER diagrams from your database (via query/sql/dbml) without needing direct DB access. Now we’re launching the ChartDB Agent. It helps you design databases from scratch or make schema changes with natural language. You can: - Generate schemas by simply describing them in plain English - Brainstorm new tables, columns, and relationships with AI - Iterate visually in a diagram (ERD) - Deterministically export SQL script Try it out here -…

Hi HN, Over the past few months I've been building DB Pro with my co-founder. DB Pro is a modern desktop database GUI client designed to make working with Postgres, MySQL, SQLite, libSQL and other engines feel fast, visual, and enjoyable. Our focus has been on the dev-experience. We wanted to absolutely nail the UX and look and feel as we believe most db clients aren't friendly to work with. Some features: Visual change review – See pending inserts/updates/deletes before committing them. Inline data editing – Edit table rows directly without clunky modal dialogs. Raw SQL editor – A…
