README

Antares SQL Client

Antares is an SQL client based on Electron.js and Vue.js that aims to become a useful tool, especially for developers.
Our target is to support as many databases as possible, and all major operating systems, including the ARM versions.

At the moment this application is in development state, many features will come in future updates, and supports only MySQL/MariaDB, PostgreSQL, SQLite and Firebird SQL.
However, there are all the features necessary to have a pleasant database management experience, so give it a chance and send us your feedback, we would really appreciate it.
We are actively working on it, hoping to provide new cool features, improvements and fixes as soon as possible.

Philosophy

Why are we developing an SQL client when there are a lot of them on the market?
The main goal is to develop a forever 100% free (without paid premium feature), full featured, as possible community driven, cross platform and open source alternative, empowered by JavaScript ecosystem.
A modern application created with minimalism and simplicity in mind, with features in the right places, not hundreds of tiny buttons, nested tabs or submenues; productivity comes first.

Installation

Based on your operating system you can have one or more distribution formats to choose based on your preferences.
Since Antares SQL is a free software we don't have a budget to spend on annual licenses or certificates. This can result that on some platforms you might need to put in some additional work to install this app.

Linux

On Linux you can simply download and run the .AppImage distribution, install from FlatHub, Snap Store, AUR or from our PPA repository.

Windows

On Windows you can choose between downloading the app from Microsoft Store or downloading the .exe from our website or this github repo. Distributions that are not from Microsoft Store are not signed with a certificate, so to install you need to click on "More info" and then "Run anyway" on SmartScreen prompt.

MacOS

On macOS you can run .dmg distribution following this guide to install apps from unknown developers.
