I am really struggling to figure out what this is or how it provides value.

Edit:

This discussion isn't exactly what I was hoping for. I was looking for ways to better highlight the features or value proposition of this site. Not defenestrate it altogether.

E.g.: A simple modal that says "Welcome to SQLite Online! You can <core value proposition> with this tool." would have radically altered my initial perception.

As an educator I would've loved to have this last time I was teaching SQL.

1: No install

2: Ephermal (just reload if you've messed up?)

3: Good syntax highlighting

4: Visual UI to navigate the model

Why to pay for it though? That's a harder nut to crack, the UI is quite nice compared to many I've seen so maybe sell as an addon for those that provider hosted databases, collaborative spaces or as a desktop app. No obvious slam dunks though.
