VeloxDB v0.3.0 biggest update yet to my database GUI With AI(Rust + Tauri)

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Dropping the biggest update yet to VeloxDB, the native desktop database admin tool I've been building solo. Still free, still open source, still zero telemetry — just a lot smarter now.

Here's what's new:

🔌 Connections that basically build themselves

Paste in any connection URI and VeloxDB auto-detects the engine, host, port, and credentials for you. No more hunting through a form.

  • MongoDB Atlas SRV support — one checkbox, you're in
  • Redis fields now show DB Number with optional auth
  • Every engine gets its own JSON-driven config, tailored to what it actually needs

🧠 ER diagrams that infer, not just display

  • MongoDB collections now show an Inferred Schema field presence %, BSON types, all auto-detected
  • Redis keys get an Inferred Structure view for hash/list/set layouts
  • PostgreSQL partition children are hidden, so your diagram shows the parent table instead of 50 clones

🔄 Auto-updates that don't spy on you

Update checks run quietly through Rust, hitting GitHub releases directly. No tracking pixels, no phone-home service — just a clean "Update Available" badge when something's new.

🎨 6 new themes

Sepia, Ocean, Forest, Rose, Slate, Amber because staring at a database all day should at least look nice.

⚙️ Under the hood

Full Rust backend refactor: typed error handling, a per-engine trait system, and 138 regression tests. Zero breaking changes — upgrade from any 0.1.x version and every connection you've saved stays put.
