Maintainer activity

169 people did triage or write work on this repository in the last 12 months.

Counts unlabeled, assigned, unassigned, milestoned, demilestoned, locked, unlocked over the last 12 months. These are issue and pull request events that require triage or write permission. Commits and code review are not counted. labeled and renamed are excluded because GitHub issue forms record the issue author as the actor. Figures from October 7, 2026. This count is not comparable across projects: each project's automation decides which of these events a person emits.

How this project is maintained

About 8% of issues opened in the past year have never received a reply. 97% of open issues come from outside the core team, so the backlog reflects real-world use rather than internal planning. Almost all tracked open issues have seen activity in the last three months. 87% of issues opened in the past year have been closed, leaving a working backlog. Three people close 90% of everything that gets resolved.

Detailed Description

DBX is a lightweight, cross-platform database client and management tool written in Rust that supports over 60 different database systems in a compact 15MB package.

The tool supports an extensive range of databases including MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQLite, Redis, MongoDB, DuckDB, ClickHouse, SQL Server, Oracle, Elasticsearch, MariaDB, TiDB, Doris, SelectDB, StarRocks, Redshift, and many others. This broad database compatibility makes DBX a unified solution for developers and database administrators who work with multiple database systems. The project distinguishes itself from competitors like DBeaver and TablePlus by eliminating runtime dependencies entirely, shipping as a single binary without requiring Java JRE, Python virtual environments, or bundled Chromium.

DBX offers both desktop and self-hosted deployment options. The desktop application runs natively on macOS, Windows, and Linux, while a Docker self-hosting option enables team access and a web version accommodates browser-only environments. All versions maintain feature parity and share connection configurations across platforms. The application is built using Tauri and Vue, combining a lightweight desktop framework with a modern frontend framework.

A distinctive feature of DBX is its integrated AI assistant that operates directly within the editor interface. Users can highlight a table, describe their requirements in natural language, and receive SQL code without needing to switch between tools. The AI integration supports multiple backends including Claude, OpenAI, and local models via Ollama, with built-in safety checks that review AI-generated SQL before execution. Additionally, DBX implements the Model Context Protocol, enabling Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, and other AI coding agents to query databases through pre-configured connections.

The project has been featured on Product Hunt, HelloGitHub, and Trendshift, reflecting its recognition within the developer community.

The codebase is organized around database client functionality, with support for connection management, query execution, data visualization, and database administration tasks. The project's homepage at dbxio.com provides additional resources and documentation. The repository maintains active communication channels including QQ groups, WeChat groups, and Discord for community support, indicating a globally distributed user base with particular engagement from Chinese-speaking developers.
