## Why QoreDB?

DBeaver, pgAdmin, phpMyAdmin do the job — but they feel slow, dated, and full of dialogs from another era. QoreDB is what we wished existed: a tool you actually enjoy opening every morning.

| | |

|---|---|

| ⚡ **Native performance** | Rust + Tauri. No Electron tax — small binary, instant startup, low memory. ~25% faster on real workloads than the previous baseline (Apple Silicon). |

| 🔒 **Local-first & secure** | Credentials in your OS keychain (Argon2). Dev/Staging/Prod guards, dangerous query detection, read-only mode. Nothing leaves your machine by default. |

| 🧩 **SQL + NoSQL, unified** | One UI for PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQL Server, SQLite, DuckDB, CockroachDB, MongoDB and Redis — plus first-class support for Supabase, Neon and TimescaleDB. |

| 📓 **Notebooks built-in** | Executable SQL/Mongo + Markdown documents with parameters, charts and Git-diffable `.qnb` files. |

| 🛡️ **Safety-first** | Universal Query Interceptor, audit logging, sandbox mode with migration generation. Production damage is harder to do by accident. |

| 🤝 **Open core** | Apache 2.0 core, readable and auditable. Premium add-ons under BUSL-1.1 — never at the expense of the open-source experience. |

Performance

- ~25% faster on real workloads (Apple Silicon) thanks to per-column decoders, MessagePack streaming between Rust and the frontend, batch streaming, expanded LRU caches, `mimalloc` allocator and PGO release builds
