Hi HN, James, Valter, Sam and the team from ElectricSQL here. We're really excited to be sharing ElectricSQL with you today. It's an open source, local-first sync layer that can be used to build reactive, realtime, offline-capable apps directly on Postgres with two way active-active sync to SQLite (including with WASM in the browser).

SnapQL is an open-source desktop app (built with Electron) that lets you query your Postgres database using natural language. It’s schema-aware, so you don’t need to copy-paste your schema or write complex SQL by hand. Everything runs locally — your OpenAI API key, your data, and your queries — so it's secure and private. Just connect your DB, describe what you want, and SnapQL writes and runs the SQL for you.

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…

Hello everyone! I'm exited to share a NodeJS package I was working on for the past two months. The package is designed to simplify querying SQL databases through an array-like API. Qustar supports PostgreSQL, SQLite, MySQL, and MariaDB, and offers TypeScript support for a robust development experience. It's in early stage of development. I would like to hear your thoughts about it.
