Focused desktop workflow

Inside the app

Connections, structure, data, and SQL in one quiet workspace.

The interface stays sharp, dark, and close to the work whether you open a database, inspect schema, browse rows, or run queries.

Connections

Jump back into local databases without ceremony.

Recent SQLite files and connection shortcuts stay close so you can reopen work quickly instead of hunting through folders.

  • Recent files
  • Shortcuts
  • Quick access
Local files

Structure

Inspect schema without losing pace.

Columns, types, and relationships stay easy to scan when you need to understand the shape of a file quickly.

  • Columns
  • Types
  • Schema detail

Table structure

schema view

Scan columns, types, and schema details without leaving the main structure view.

Open the inspector when you want deeper detail for one table and its fields.

SQL Editor

Write queries with a cleaner edge.

The editor keeps query writing, results, and syntax highlighting in a single dark frame, while query history lets you save SQL with names and notes, search it later, and see how often each query ran.

  • Saved queries
  • Search
  • Run counts

Query flow

editor live

Write and run SQL with syntax highlighting and results directly below the editor.

Save queries with names and notes, search them later, and track how often they were executed.

Editing

From browse state to row edit, without context switching.

Flip between the table and the record editor in the same visual frame.

  • Browse rows without leaving the data view.
  • Open one record and edit it in place.
  • Export CSV files or create a quick backup before bigger changes.

Live preview

table live

Scan rows, sort fast, export CSV, keep moving.

Open one record, change the fields, commit, continue.

Install

Install with Homebrew or npm.

Pick the setup that fits your workflow and get straight to the database.

Homebrew if you want the tap. npm if you want the one-liner.

Homebrew
Install in two lines
$ brew tap oliverjessner/tap$ brew install sqlite-hub
npm
Global install
$ npm install -g sqlite-hub

CLI

Create in the UI, automate from the CLI if you want to.

SQLite Hub stays interface-first, but the CLI gives you quick access to help text, version info, imported database metadata, table names, and saved query execution.

Use the UI for the visual work. Use the CLI when Terminal is the faster move.
