Hey HN, over the past couple of months I've been building kvweb which is a web-based GUI for browsing and editing Valkey/Redis databases. I wanted something like pgweb but for Valkey, and when I dug into the existing options they were either desktop apps, looked pretty dated, or were missing features I cared about. redis-cli is great for quick commands but I wanted something visual for exploring unfamiliar databases. It's a Go backend with a Svelte frontend that compiles down to a single binary, so you just point it at any Valkey or Redis instance and open your browser. AGPL licensed.

Each data type has its own editor: strings, hashes, lists, sets, sorted sets, streams, HyperLogLog, and geo with a map view. You can search keys with glob or regex, filter by type, browse them as a tree, and bulk delete. It auto-detects compressed values (gzip, zstd) and decompresses them for display. Changes show up live via WebSocket keyspace notifications, and there's a built-in command console if you need to run something ad-hoc. Screenshots at kvweb.dev
