Project overview
pgpad is a work-in-progress cross-platform database client focused on quick startup, a small footprint, and routine SQL queries. It currently supports PostgreSQL and SQLite, with CockroachDB available through the PostgreSQL wire protocol. The project is intended for users who want a straightforward query tool rather than a full database-management suite such as DBeaver. Current documentation centers on building from source and requires npm plus Rust 1.85 or newer.
