I am not a fan of the dbeaver, beekeeper, adminer, etc experience because they are bloated, ugly, and at best okay but not great.
Hence why I started working on WhoDB.
The approach:
- browser-based (chrome/firefox)
- no bloat
- jupyter notebook-like experience (Scratchpad)
- built-in AI co-pilot with ollama (local) or openai/anthropic
We just shipped query history and replay (time travel?) to the Scratchpad.
Would love for you to check it out and give some feedback aka roast us into oblivion:
docker run -p 8080:8080 clidey/whodb
Food for thought:
1. What's your biggest database pain point?
2. Any killer feature missing from current tools?
> No more wasting time crafting complex SQL queries
I always wondered about this sentiment; isn't the time spent crafting complex queries a good thing when trying to understand a problem domain? I.e. incrementally refining your mental model of the data model
