About The Project

This project is heavily inspired by Lazygit, which I think is the best TUI client for Git.

I wanted to have a tool like that, but for SQL. I didn't find one that fits my needs, so I created one myself.

I live in the terminal, so if you are like me, this tool can become handy for you too.

This is my first Open Source project, also, this is my first Go project. I am not a brilliant programmer. I am just a typical JavaScript developer that wanted to learn a new language, I also wanted a TUI SQL Client, so white and bottled.

This project is in ALPHA stage, please feel free to complain about my spaghetti code.

I use Lazysql daily in my full-time job as a full-stack javascript developer in its current (buggy xD) state. So, the plan is to improve and fix my little boy as a side-project in my free time.
