Does anyone have a good database manager running on their uConsole? Looks like DBeaverCE and DataGrip don’t work on the architecture ☹

I’m running MariaDB on the DevTerm it’s started from mysql… I really like it and Graphana will talk to it…

I had trouble with sqlitebrowser not fitting in the window on my DevTerm. I end up using command-line most of the time plus lots of home grown scripts because that seems to be the most flexible/portable.

I use command line interface as well - working on a Node-Red front end but have only gotten the gui done…

I know you are looking for a GUI client, but as a DBA coddled by SSMS, that had to move to Maria and PostgreS, get comfy with the CLI.  
Once you get the hang of it you’ll find all that GUI is doing is standing in your way.

You’ll start scripting in SQL, Bash, Python. It will open doors I promise.

What core do you have in your uConsole?  
If it’s the CM4 Beekeeper studio has an ARM64 release:

> **[GitHub - beekeeper-studio/beekeeper-studio: Modern and easy to use SQL client...](https://github.com/beekeeper-studio/beekeeper-studio)**
>
> Modern and easy to use SQL client for MySQL, Postgres, SQLite, SQL Server, and more. Linux, MacOS, and Windows. - GitHub - beekeeper-studio/beekeeper-studio: Modern and easy to use SQL client for M...

And the only extra package I needed was fuse and the appimage ran just fine, though they do have a deb too if you prefer that route.

Fun fact:  
MariaDB, MySQL, and MaxDB are all named after one of the founder’s three children.

For the longest time I thought My meant “Mine” nope, My is a name.

That aside, MariaDB is an excellent choice for most projects.

Still ARM64, give it a try.

I use it on my pi400 that monitors a handful of mariaDB and Postgres Labs.  
Does the trick.

I read this post a few months ago and decided to start developing a SQL editor / database manager that suites the uConsole. Let me know how you find it / suggestions / bug’s found

You could install VSCode and installing one of the database extensions.

```auto
$ sudo apt install code

```

Then in VSCode, click on the “Extensions” and search “database”. There are quite a few to choose from.

TablePlus has AppImage that works. I use it on Mac and Linux for years.
