I'm working on https://superintendent.app regularly. I use it at my work to process very large CSV files with SQL. Excel can't handle more than 1M rows. I could have used a database, but it is such a hassle.

It is built with Electron + React + Rust + C + Sqlite.

Right now I'm adding the workflow feature where it can chain multiple SQLs together called a workflow. Then, I would be able to handle the repetitive task better at work.

This app is profit seeking.

Thank you for pointing it out. I just notice the description.

I guess I can offer a different one that is free.

A programmable tooltip on Mac: https://github.com/tanin47/tip

I'm experimenting with a mechanism to replace the selected text. You can select a text (on any app), activate the tooltip, and select one of the options, and that option can replace the selected text. The UX isn't as smooth as I want. There is some sort of modal blocking going on, and I'm still figuring out how to overcome that.
