![]() Unfortunately, I have not used SQL databases since I started working at InVision about 1 year ago. I even learned how to build a basic AST parser for SQL ( sql-query-identifier), one of the most exciting thing I have ever coded :) And, for sure the best part, Sqlectron gave me some good points in my application to InVision App. I learned a lot of different technologies: Electron, React, Redux, Webpack, and much more. I also contributed to several projects through PRs and reporting issues. Few awesome developers contributed to the project with PRs and many others with reported issues. In 2 years and few months, the main project has received 2,150 stars on Github. On Sep 5, 2015, I pushed the initial commit for Sqlectron to Github and, at the time, although I wished people would use it and I could somehow benefit of this experience building this tool, I didn’t know how much difference contributing to OSS would make in my life. Another issue, we could find some good SQL clients that had support for a single OS only and my colleagues were all over Darwin, Windows and few different Linux distributions.Īfter some time with this desire in mind “I wish there was a simple and lightweight SQL client desktop with cross-database and platform support”, I decided to build this tool and keep it OSS (open source software), so anyone struggling with the same issue could benefit of it and even help improving it. But, most of the existing SQL clients would support only a single database type. We were working with microservices, which allowed us easily using different databases for different issues. In 2015, I and my colleagues were struggling with different SQL clients. ![]() ![]() Sqlectron: A goodbye to my first big experience with Open Source
