_why_tabularis
This project was born from frustration with existing database tools. Most current solutions feel clunky, outdated, or bloated with poor user experience.
Tabularis is the answer: a refreshing alternative built to prioritize UX without sacrificing power. It bridges the gap between native performance and web flexibility, using Tauri to keep the footprint tiny and startup instant.

_capabilities
Generate SQL from natural language ("Show me active users") and get explanations for complex queries. Securely integrated with OpenAI, Anthropic, OpenRouter, and Ollama (Local LLM) for total privacy.
Built-in Model Context Protocol support. Expose your database schemas and run queries directly from Claude or other MCP-compatible AI agents.
Construct complex queries visually. Drag tables, connect columns for JOINs, and let the tool write the SQL for you. Includes aggregate functions and advanced filtering.
Monaco-based editor with syntax highlighting, multiple tabs, and DataGrip-style execution (run selected, run all).
Inline editing of table and column properties directly from the sidebar. GUI wizards to Create Tables, Modify Columns, and Manage Indexes/Foreign Keys. Visualize your database structure with an interactive ER Diagram.
Monitor plugin processes in real time. Track CPU, RAM and disk usage for each plugin, inspect child processes, and force-kill or restart any plugin directly from the built-in Task Manager window.
Inline editing, row deletion, and easy data entry. Copy selected rows to the clipboard, or export results to JSON or CSV with a single click.
Connect to remote databases securely through SSH tunnels and manage SSH connections right from the connection manager. Passwords and API Keys are stored securely in your system's Keychain.
Work with multiple connections simultaneously in a resizable split-pane layout. Open any connection directly from the sidebar context menu and compare results across databases side by side.
Export full database dumps and re-import SQL with a guided flow, making migrations and backups fast and safe.
Automatic: Tabularis checks for updates on startup and notifies you when a new version is available. Manual: You can always check for updates manually or download the latest release from GitHub.
_plugins
Tabularis supports extending its database support via an external plugin system. Plugins are standalone executables that communicate with the app through JSON-RPC 2.0 over stdin/stdout. They can be written in any programming language and distributed independently of the main app.
🧩 Language-Agnostic
Write your driver in Rust, Go, Python, Node.js — anything that speaks JSON-RPC over stdin/stdout. No SDK required.
⚡ Hot Install
Install, update, and remove plugins from Settings → Plugins without restarting. New drivers appear instantly in the connection form.
🔒 Process Isolation
Each plugin runs as a separate process. A crashing plugin never takes down the app — only the affected connection fails.
Available Plugins
DuckDB local analytical database
Query a folder of .csv / .tsv files as a database. Each file becomes a table.
Tabularis driver for Redis databases. Supports virtual table views for Strings, Hashes, Lists, Sets, and ZSets with native UI write operations.
_themes
Why stare at a dull interface? Tabularis brings a first-class theming experience. Switch instantly between 10+ presets without restarting. Syntax highlighting is automatically generated from the UI theme.
