Native

Written in Rust, with no browser inside. One small program for Linux, macOS and Windows.

🗄️

Three databases

PostgreSQL, MySQL and SQLite, with the same grid, row panel and SQL editor for each.

🔐

Connections that fit your setup

TLS, SSH tunnels with a password, a key file or your agent, and passwords kept in the system keyring.

How connections work

🛡️

Careful with production

A production connection opens read-only unless you say otherwise, and a save to production asks first, with its SQL on screen.

✏️

Edit in the grid

Changes wait until you save and go in as one transaction. When someone else changed the same row, the save stops and asks you.

How editing works

🧭

Made for browsing

Sort, filter and page on the server. Open a row to read every field, follow its foreign keys, and read the table’s structure.

Browse a table

⌨️

SQL editor

Run the statement at the cursor or the whole script, with completion, a formatter, a row limit and a timeout.

Two looks, one app

The picture above is the macOS look, and Windows gets a close relative of it. On Linux, Tabletist takes the Omarchy look: square, keyboard first, with vim keys and the desktop’s monospace font throughout. On Omarchy it follows the desktop’s theme and recolors when you switch themes. Read about the Omarchy look and Tabletist on macOS.

Try it without a database

Start Tabletist with --demo and it opens a sample database, so you can look around before you connect to your own. Get started.
