A. I was using the DuckDB CLI and kept hitting walls on analyses. Had a shower thought of “I wonder if anyone has used Textual for a DuckDB client” and decided to build one myself.
B. This uses Textual, a python framework for TUIs. Python is my language of choice.
C. Hoping for more db adapters soon. Canceling queries is a missing piece I have yet to figure out
E. Maybe if you don’t use Python apps and do have another sql client you really like.
A few questions ...
a. what caused you to start working this?
b. any particular reason why you chose to implement it the way you did (e.g. I see you use Python + Textual as opposed to something like https://charm.sh/libs/)
c. any major functionality you feel it's missing?
d. any limitations (e.g. doesn't work with Oracle?)
e. any reason why someone should not use it?
Thanks in advance.
