A fast, native Postgres client for Linux
Postgres is Zolt's first-class engine — available on the free Community tier. Schema-aware completion, instant table browsing, and a result grid that treats a million-row SELECT as a normal day.
What you get
- Schema-aware SQL completion across schemas, tables, and columns
- GPU result grid — 60 fps scrolling on 1,000,000-row result sets
- SSH tunneling built in; credentials stay in the OS keychain
- Schema diff and DDL generation between environments
- EXPLAIN-friendly query editor with per-statement timing
Why Linux specifically
First-class Linux: Vulkan rendering, Wayland and X11, credentials in the Secret Service API (GNOME Keyring / KWallet). Not a flatpak'd afterthought.
Linux is the most underserved desktop for database GUIs — TablePlus barely ships there, DataGrip costs a JetBrains subscription, and most of the rest is Electron. A native GPU-rendered client on Linux is Zolt's home-field advantage.

Common questions
Is Zolt a native Postgres client on Linux?
Yes. Zolt is written end-to-end in Rust on GPUI and renders through Vulkan on Linux — no Electron, no WebView. Credentials are stored in Secret Service (GNOME Keyring / KWallet).
Which Postgres versions does Zolt support?
Postgres 9 through 16, including managed services that speak the Postgres wire protocol (RDS, Cloud SQL, Supabase, Neon).
When can I download Zolt for Linux?
Download the current Linux build from zoltdb.com/download. Versioned builds are published from GitHub Releases so you can choose the newest build or an older one inside your update window.
