LinkedQL – Live Queries over Postgres, MySQL, MariaDB

LinkedQL is a new SQL client that supports live queries over any Postgres, MySQL, and MariaDB database. You get result sets that self-update differentially as rows change in your database – via inserts, updates, deletes. Works with no extra tooling/ORM layer or GraphQL servers. You opt into live mode simply with a flag: client.query('SELECT ...', { live: true }).

In plain words

LinkedQL is a SQL client for Postgres, MySQL, and MariaDB that enables live queries with automatically updating result sets as database rows change through inserts, updates, and deletes. Written in JavaScript and compatible with both client and server environments, it requires no additional tools, ORM layers, or GraphQL servers—developers simply add a live flag to enable the feature. It's designed for developers who need real-time database synchronization in their applications.

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
