Sequel-Ace VS datasette

On Mac OS I use Sequel Ace for MariaDB/MySQL, it's a spiritual successor to Sequel Pro. Native UI. Works great. https://sequel-ace.com/

u might consider more appropriate versions: https://sequel-ace.com/, Digital Color Meter (standard OSX app) ....

I use Sequel Ace for MySQL database management. It’s free and it gets the job done when I’m working with MySQL. If you used Sequel Pro, you will be familiar with Sequel Ace.

We tend to recommend Tableplus (https://tableplus.com/) or Sequel Ace (https://sequel-ace.com/) if free. Datagrip (https://www.jetbrains.com/datagrip/) if paid.

FYI Sequel Pro hasn’t been updated in a while and has some major issues atm. Sequel Ace is a fork of it that fixes these problems and has started to add more features to it.

checkout https://github.com/Sequel-Ace/Sequel-Ace it's a native mac app, and they have a apple silicon build.

Simon Willison's github would be a great place to get started imo -

I'm a fan on simonw's datasette/dogsheep ecosystem https://datasette.io/

I use Anki the exact same way. After a lifetime of learning I have accepted that I will never read over anything I write for myself voluntarily - so my two options are:

1. Write an article so good I can publish it and look it over myself later on. I did this last year with https://andrew-quinn.me/fzf/, for example.

2. Create Anki cards out of the material. Use the builtin Card Browser or even https://datasette.io/ on the underlying SQLite database in a pinch to search for my notes any time I have to.

Were you aware of, or tempted by https://datasette.io/ for creating your solution?

Browsing HN, GitHub and the like we get to see a huge variety of software products and code bases.

I often see products and think - if this product X, got together with Y, it would be pretty cool - kind of like if they had a kid together.

Not too literally, but more on the conceptual level - my level of programming is low.

E.g. Just some....

You might like the Datasette project: https://datasette.io/

I don't think they are desperate for contributions but it's a welcoming environment and a fun project to hack on. You'll learn a lot just from reading the source and the incredibly informative PRs. The creator is a really talented developer with a great blog which shows up on the HN front page often.

Last year I worked through the challenges using VisiData, Datasette, and Pandas. I walked through my thought process and solutions in a series of posts.
