IceQL is a modern cross-platform desktop SQL client for PostgreSQL, MySQL, and SQLite. Features inline editing, SQL editor with syntax highlighting, multi-tab interface, and query logs. Built with Tauri + Rust.
Curious how the query history syncs between machines since it's built with Tauri, is there a cloud layer or is everything stored locally per device?
@havvaq6ab Great question! Right now everything is stored 100% locally on each device — there's no cloud layer or sync between machines. Query history, connections, etc. all live in local storage on the device via Tauri, nothing gets sent to a server. So if you use it on two machines, the history won't be shared between them (yet). Cross-device sync could be a nice future feature though, thanks for bringing it up!
Tauri + Rust is a smart pick for something like this, the app feels snappy and lightweight in a way most Electron-based SQL clients just don't. The multi-tab setup with inline editing is exactly the kind of thing that makes daily querying actually pleasant.
@hanifeerhal Thanks so much, really appreciate that! Snappiness was actually one of the main reasons I went with Tauri + Rust instead of Electron — native webview + a Rust backend keeps memory usage and startup time way down. Glad the multi-tab + inline editing setup is landing well too, that was a big focus for making everyday querying less clunky.
Finally a lightweight SQL client that doesn't feel like a memory hog. The inline editing and query logs are a nice touch, and the fact that it's built with Tauri shows in how snappy everything feels.
@halitvaxl Appreciate it, thank you! Keeping it lightweight was a top priority — Tauri lets me skip bundling a whole Chromium instance like Electron does, so it stays lean on memory. Glad the inline editing and query logs are useful too, those came directly from wanting something that fits into daily workflow without getting in the way.
