Loved the design, looks better then the most tools I've tried. I'm using Prisma + Supabase in one of my side projects and having constant db issues. Can I integrate DB Pro? Will it replace Prisma or what?

So DB Pro is a local desktop database client for managing your databases and data. Prisma ORM it won't replace, but Prisma's browser-based data browser, yes it will absolutely replace that. It's not a replacement for Supabase, it works alongside it, if that answers your question?
I'm planning to extend DB Pro into much more than a database manager though, letting you build dashboards, workflows and workbooks.

I've been trying to connect to Supabase, got help from an agent to but couldn't resolve the issue and connect :/
What’s actually broken
DB Pro:
Enforces strict TLS verification
Uses its own certificate trust bundle
Does not:
read macOS System Keychain reliably
allow custom CA injection
allow “require but don’t verify”
Supabase pooler requires either:
trusting Supabase’s CA, or
allowing non-verified SSL
DB Pro supports neither.
So it fails with:
self signed certificate in certificate chain
This is a product limitation / bug in DB Pro.
