As an open source project maintainer [1] with a set of proprietary add-ons, I totally understand the project maintainer desire to have a single repository with a single version, single build system, and a single place for issues.

I've considered doing the same thing, but it's all the legal complexity that stops me, doesn't seem worth it.

I recently came across Beekeeper Studio in a comment here on hn, and I really like it so far.

I generally use pgcli for talking to postgres, and I occasionally need sql developer for Oracle - but with Bk i might standardize on it for ms sql server, postgres and sqlite.

It's foss and electron. That it's snappier than sql developerto start isn't saying much... I guess.

I tried ms azure data studio or what it's called, and I think Beekeeper is a good alternative. It doesn't do all that sql server mgmt studio does - but then it also doesn't need to run in a windows vm..
