What you get
- Open local SQLite 3.x files directly — no import step

Why macOS specifically
Apple-silicon native. Renders through Metal — the same path Zed uses — with proper macOS conventions: native menu bar, ⌘-shortcuts, Keychain-stored credentials.
The macOS build shares the same Rust + GPUI codebase and core workflows as the Windows and Linux builds.
