Why Windows specifically

A real Win32 application rendering through DirectX 12 — not an Electron shell. Credentials live in Windows Credential Manager; Ctrl-shortcuts follow platform conventions.

Windows is where most 'native' database clients quietly become second-class ports. Zolt's Windows build is the same codebase, same renderer architecture, same performance budget as macOS.

Common questions

Is Zolt a native Postgres client on Windows?

Yes. Zolt is written end-to-end in Rust on GPUI and renders through DirectX 12 on Windows — no Electron, no WebView. Credentials are stored in Windows Credential Manager.

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 Windows?

Zolt is in private pre-alpha; the public beta for macOS, Windows, and Linux is planned within roughly 12 weeks. Join the waitlist at zoltdb.com/download to get the Windows build the day it ships.
