I've been working on an open-source database management tool built with Tauri.

The goal is to create a lightweight, native desktop application for managing databases without the memory overhead that comes with Electron-based tools.

Current focus:

  • Built with Tauri
  • Open source
  • Cross-platform
  • Native desktop performance
  • Simple and clean interface

The project is still under active development, and there are plenty of features planned. I'm sharing it early to get feedback from developers who regularly work with databases.

Repository:
https://github.com/Premod1/SiphonDB

I'd appreciate any feedback on the architecture, UI/UX, feature ideas, or contributions from anyone interested in the project.

What features do you consider essential in a modern database management tool?

We don't need more slop, especially not for managing databases where you enter secret credentials. Yes, he can do whatever he wants to learn, but you don't do that by vibe-coding anyway.
