About Outerbase Studio

Outerbase Studio is a graphical database client that runs in a web browser. It connects to PostgreSQL, MySQL and SQLite, as well as libSQL, and lets you browse tables, edit rows and run queries without installing a heavyweight desktop client.

The project is a Next.js application with a Dockerfile in the repository, so you can run your own instance. It suits developers who want a quick visual view of a database from any machine with a browser.

Strengths

  • Runs in the browser with nothing to install on the client
  • Supports Postgres, MySQL, SQLite and libSQL
  • Can be self-hosted with Docker

Limitations

  • Fewer database engines than large desktop clients
  • Browser-based access may not reach databases on closed networks without self-hosting
