Dataflare▲11Hello everyone, I'm an indie hacker and, like many others, I also use various database management software. About a year ago, I evaluated several database-related apps, and my ideal app should be lightweight, simple, and beautiful. Finally, I decided to create my own and recently completed it. This is my first released product called Dataflare, built using Rust/Tauri/React. It supports dozens of databases and has a size of only 30MB. It is simple enough but still lacks some functionalities. Hope it will be useful to you, and if possible, please provide me with some feedback.

We just launched Outerbase Studio, the open-source version of our core database offering. It works in your browser or as a desktop app and supports MySQL, PostgreSQL, and SQLite. What it does: • Connects to MySQL, PostgreSQL, and SQLite databases. • Spin up local databases directly through the UI, even if you don’t have one running. • Manage and query your data in a lightweight, intuitive interface. • Completely open source. Why we built it: We wanted to share the core Outerbase experience with the developer community as a free, open-source tool. It’s simple, fast, and removes the barriers…

Hi everyone! I’m excited to open source GritQL, a Rust CLI for searching and transforming source code. GritQL comes from my experiences with conducting large scale refactors and migrations. Usually, I would start exploring a codebase with grep. This is easy to start with, but most migrations end up accumulating additional requirements like ensuring the right packages are imported and excluding cases which don’t have a viable migration path. Eventually, to build a complex migration, I usually ended up having to write a full codemod program with a tool like jscodeshift. This comes with its own…

Hey HN, We are excited to announce that we’ve open-sourced AGX, a fast and lightweight data explorer for ClickHouse. It is designed for developers and analysts who want to leverage SQL-native querying in an IDE-like environment. Here’s what makes AGX stand out: - Built on ClickHouse (accessible via embedded chdb or remote instance). - IDE-like user interface: features tabs, a Monaco editor, and a fast keyboard workflow. - Zero setup required: no infrastructure or complex dashboards to manage. - Ideal for exploring live blockchain data, while also flexible enough for general ClickHouse usage…

Hi HN, I'm Hugo. I've been building Rocky over the past month, shipping fast in the open. The binary is on GitHub Releases, `dagster-rocky` on PyPI, and the VS Code extension on the Marketplace. I held off on a broader announcement until the trust-system surface was coherent enough to talk about as one thing. The governance waveplan — column classification, per-env masking, 8-field audit trail on every run, `rocky compliance` rollup, role-graph reconciliation, retention policies — landed end-to-end last week in engine-v1.16.0 and rounded out in v1.17.4 (tagged 2026-04-26). That's the…

Hey, everyone. I am currently working on AllyDB, which is basically my own Redis, which I am writing in Elixir. Currently, the database is nowhere close to being ready, as you can see in the roadmap, but I am doing my best to add stuff as fast as possible. Currently the implementation is very simple, with an in memory table, an append log persistence system, as well as an interval persistence system as a backup. The database could definitely be optimized further, especially when it comes to persistence, which I am planning to do in the future. I'm also planning to use Rust NIFs for specific…

db-ui▲12Hey! I needed a simple to use self-hosted web ui for managing db data. pgadmin is pretty complicated, adminer is pretty old-looking. Also, the stuff I need to do often feels doable by AI so I would like to have it integrated too. So I created my own. Currently works with postgres only (as this is the only DB I use) and connects to groq (they've a free plan and I didn't look further), not against adding alternatives if there's some demand for it. Dockerized, also pretty simple to run from source (implemented as a next.js app).
