Peek – A Figma like DB GUI

Over the last year or so I've been building a DB GUI that has all the features I've wanted in a db client. It's built using Tauri (so react for the ui and Rust for all the db interactions, LSP and multiplayer networking). I've been using it as my primary db client for a while but it just recently got to a point where it would make sense for other people to try it so I've [open sourced](https://github.com/getpeek/peek) it and slopped together a website for it. What sets Peek apart from most other solutions is that all queries and results are laid out on an infinite canvas…

What it does

A database GUI for people who think in two dimensions, not in queries and results. Explore, edit, chart and chat with your data on an infinite canvas.

The best way of understanding Peek is by testing it. Try clicking the send message button below, or share the session with someone. Peek doesn't waste time rendering things you can't see. Nodes out of view are hidden and all results are virtualized allowing you to query big datasets without a drop in performance. Peek offers local inference. Download your favorite huggingface model and use it with Peek. Your schema, data and chats never leave your machine , and you don't have to worry about rate limits. Enable Peek's MCP and let Claude Code take the wheel . Your favorite agent can create queries, pages and analyze results, and even move the camera. Share a private link with your team, they…from getpeek.dev

    Hey there HN! We’re Joe and Stopa, and today we’re open sourcing InstantDB, a client-side database that makes it easy to build real-time and collaborative apps like Notion and Figma. Building modern apps these days involves a lot of schleps. For a basic CRUD app you need to spin up servers, wire up endpoints, integrate auth, add permissions, and then marshal data from the backend to the frontend and back again. If you want to deliver a buttery smooth user experience, you’ll need to add optimistic updates and rollbacks. We do these steps over and over for every feature we build, which can…

    One year ago I open-sourced my very first 'real' project and shared it here. I was a college student in my senior year and desperately looking for a job. At the time of sharing it i couldn't even afford a domain and naively let someone buy the one i had my eyes on lol. It's been a hell of a year with this blowing up, me moving to another country, and switching 2 jobs. In a year we somehow managed to hit 26k stars, grow a 1000+ person discord community, and support 37 languages. I couldn't be more grateful for the community that helped this grow, but now i don't know what direction to take…

    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…

  • Today, I’m proud to announce Homebrew 6.0.0. The most significant changes since 5.1.0 are a new tap trust security mechanism, the new faster, smaller, default internal Homebrew JSON API, sandboxing on Linux, better defaults informed by our user survey, many brew bundle improvements, improved performance and initial support for macOS 27 (Golden Gate). Happy to discuss any questions here!
