Production and staging should never feel interchangeable. In Tabularis v0.19.0, production connections stay visibly marked and any statement that is not clearly read-only triggers a confirmation with a SQL preview. One extra pause can save a very long night. 1 of 5 · Next →

Tabularis v0.18.0 is out. You can finally manage MySQL and MariaDB users and privileges without opening a terminal. List accounts, create them, tick a box to grant, untick to revoke. Built start to finish by a community contributor. 🧵

The Rust stack inside a ~15 MB installer | Tabularis Blog

Two database stacks, several TLS verification paths, two SSH clients, a hand-written float16 decoder, and the vendored OpenSSL that refuses to leave: a guided tour of the fifty-odd top-level Rust depe...

Tabularis v0.17.0 is out 🚀 Visual EXPLAIN that points at the actual problem, a row editor that follows your selection, and SQL that formats itself, your way. A thread 🧵👇

A database client is a systems program with a UI problem. After 64 releases, here is an honest account of why Tabularis runs on @tauri.app , what worked, and what it cost: three webviews, Wayland bugs, a 94 MB AppImage, and the IPC tax. tabularis.dev/blog/why-tab...

Why I chose Tauri, and what it cost me | Tabularis Blog

A database client is a systems program with a UI problem. That is why I chose Tauri over Electron and native. After six months and 64 releases, here is the part the framework comparison charts leave o...

The Tabularis plugin registry just went from a list to a platform. v0.16.0 rebuilds it as a hosted service: searchable driver catalogue inside New Connection, one-click deep-link installs, updates offered right in the app. Free, open source, and this release is packed. 🧵 1/4

Tabularis v0.15.0 is out. Import your saved connections from DBeaver, Beekeeper Studio, TablePlus, DataGrip and Sequel Ace. Preview everything, resolve duplicates, pick target folders. No more retyping. Thread ↓

Tabularis v0.14.0 is out. Manage stored routines, not just tables: run, create, edit, and drop procedures and functions for MySQL and PostgreSQL. Run builds a reviewable script from your IN/INOUT parameters before anything executes. Thread ↓

Tabularis is now part of the JetBrains Open Source Program 🎉 A small loop that made us smile: most of Tabularis is already written inside a JetBrains IDE, and now JetBrains is backing the project from the other side of that screen. We didn't discover the tool because of the deal. 🧵

Most SQL entering codebases today was written by a model. The author didn't really read it. The reviewer didn't either. Tests pass, dashboard renders, "LGTM". That's a query in production that no human has ever understood. Why SQL is the worst language for this ⤵

Thanks for the mention! Our goal is to make AI agents first-class citizens inside a database client, so they can inspect schemas, execute queries, and assist developers without context switching. Still early, but we're moving fast.

Client de base de données desktop open-source, avec MCP intégré pour que les agents IA puissent inspecter les schémas et exécuter des requêtes, sans sortir de l'outil. Rust + Tauri, supporte PostgreSQL, MySQL et SQLite, extensible via plugins. ⬇️ https://tabularis.dev/

Your YubiKey is now a first-class citizen. 🔓 Tabularis v0.13.4 lets SSH ask for what it needs: a hardware key PIN, a FIDO touch, a passphrase. Clean in-app popup, secret goes straight to SSH, never hits disk. No more silent connection fails. 🧵 1/5 👇

Secrets are invisible until they leak. 1Password gave Tabularis a free open-source plan, and it's genuinely great. Next up: our CI secrets in one vault, pulled into GitHub Actions with op:// refs. 🙏 tabularis.dev/blog/managin...

Database driver plugins in Tabularis, done the boring way on purpose: no dynamic libraries, no WASM — just external processes talking JSON over stdin/stdout. Crashes stay isolated. Write a driver in any language. 3 months in production. tabularis.dev/blog/databas... #Rust #Databases #FOSS

Database drivers as external processes | Tabularis Blog

About three months ago I added support for plugin drivers outside the Tabularis process. External drivers are ordinary programs speaking JSON-RPC over stdin/stdout. This is a retrospective on why that...

Trying to make this corner of Bluesky easier to find. Put together a starter pack of the database + devtools accounts worth following: Postgres, DuckDB, Supabase, Drizzle, Tauri and friends. Follow them all in one tap 👇 bsky.app/starter-pack...

Editor tabs now wear the connection's color. The active-tab line, body gradient, loading bar and even split-pane headers pick up the connection's accent, so you never run a statement against the wrong DB. Falls back to blue when none is active.

Tabularis v0.13.3 is out 🧵 Query results, now colored by data type: numbers, text, dates and booleans each get their own color, following your theme's palette. Off by default, no scroll cost. A community-driven release. Here's what's new 👇

We're building Tabularis, the open-source database client we always wanted: Postgres, MySQL, SQLite, plugins, notebooks & AI. What do you actually want from a database tool? 2 min, and it steers what we build next 👇 tabularis.dev/survey #database #SQL #devtools #opensource #mysql #postgresql

Localization is one of those things you only notice when it's broken. We picked tolgee.io to localize Tabularis: open source, strings in context, not blind JSON. Community translations are coming. 🙏 tabularis.dev/blog/transla...

Huge thanks to DevGlobe for the full deep-dive on Tabularis 🌍🙏 And honestly: go check out DevGlobe too. Connect your IDE, light up on a live globe, track your coding stats & get noticed. Open source, works with basically every editor. 🚀 What they wrote 👇

Why is this query slow? Stop reading raw EXPLAIN output. Tabularis turns execution plans into a visual graph — node costs, table details, and AI-assisted recommendations to actually fix it. Query plans you can see. 🔍

AI in your database client, without losing control. Tabularis pauses every AI-driven write at an approval gate: review the SQL and a pre-flight EXPLAIN, then approve, edit, or deny. Autonomy when you want it. Brakes when you need them. 🛑

Write SQL, hit Run, work with your results, no friction. The Tabularis editor and data grid are built to feel instant: inline editing, filtering, sorting, and a results grid that keeps up with you. This is your everyday database workflow. ⚡

Say hello to Tabularis 👋 An open-source desktop database client built for people who live in their queries. Fast, cross-platform, plugin-friendly — and yours to extend. ⭐ Open source · 🔌 Plugins · 🤖 AI-native 🔗 tabularis.dev · github.com/TabularisDB/tabularis
