A fast, native SQLite client for Windows
Open a local .db or .sqlite file and browse it instantly — SQLite support ships in the free Community tier. No server setup, no import wizard, no Electron tax for a 50 KB file.
What you get
- Open local SQLite 3.x files directly — no import step
- Full query editor with schema-aware completion
- GPU result grid for large tables and full-table scans
- Free on the Community tier, including commercial use under the two-tab limit
- WAL-aware handling and read-only workflows where supported
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.
