About:
Rainfrog is a lightweight, keyboard-driven terminal user interface (TUI) for managing PostgreSQL, MySQL, and SQLite databases. It provides an intuitive, vim-inspired workflow for navigating schemas, executing queries, and inspecting data without leaving the command line. Designed for efficiency, it serves as a modern alternative to heavier GUI clients like DBeaver or pgAdmin.
Key Features:
  • Cross-database support (PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQLite)
  • Vim-inspired keybindings and navigation
  • Real-time query execution and result viewing
  • Lightweight and fast TUI interface
Use Cases:
  • Quickly inspecting and modifying data on remote servers via SSH
  • Developing database queries with an efficient keyboard-driven workflow
  • Managing multiple database connections from a single terminal session
Alternatives:
  • pgcli – pgcli is PostgreSQL-specific with auto-completion, while Rainfrog offers a full TUI experience with broader database support and vim bindings.
  • DBeaver – DBeaver is a feature-rich GUI client; Rainfrog is a lightweight terminal alternative focused on speed and keyboard navigation.
