Hey Hacker News! I wanted to share the open source project I have been working on during the last year: SQLPage, a tool to build small web applications entirely in SQL. Building web applications with just SQL isn't as crazy as it seems. Most simple applications can be expressed declaratively as just data queries that fill pre-defined web components. I'd love to hear your feedback and thoughts on it. Would you potentially use it? How can it be improved? Website: https://sql.ophir.dev/ Github: https://github.com/lovasoa/SQLpage Example app:…

I work mostly in the terminal but found myself constantly switching to bloated GUIs like SSMS only for the simple task of browsing tables and run queries. And I didn't find Existing SQL TUIs intuitive, having to read documentation to learn keybindings and CLI flags to connect. Given I had recently switched to linux, I found myself using vs code's sql database extension. Something was awfully wrong. I wanted something like lazygit for databases – run it, connect, and query and frankly just make it enjoyable to access data. Sqlit is a keyboard-driven SQL TUI with: - Context-based keybindings…

Hey Show HN! I’m Toby and over the last few months, I’ve been working with a team of engineers from Airbnb, Apple, Google, and Netflix, to simplify developing data pipelines with SQLMesh (https://github.com/TobikoData/sqlmesh). We’re tired of fragile pipelines, untested SQL queries, and expensive staging environments for data. Software engineers have reaped the benefits of DevOps through unit tests, continuous integration, and continuous deployment for years. We felt like it was time for data teams to have the same confidence and efficiency in development as their peers.…

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. The goal is to let you explore and query data like you would in a spreadsheet: intuitive, fast, and without friction. Key features: - Automatic joins & related data navigation: Right-click any row to instantly see related records in other tables (based on foreign keys or references). - Keyboard-driven UI: Hit N to jump to a table, F to filter, and so on,…
