LibreDB Studio is an MIT-licensed, self-hosted SQL IDE for PostgreSQL that runs in the browser and deploys as a container or Helm chart. It is deployed next to the database it manages, as a container, a Helm chart or an npm package, rather than installed on each developer's machine. PostgreSQL is its reference implementation: the provider is built on node-postgres, and the other supported engines…

What plx is plx is a PostgreSQL extension that lets you write stored functions and triggers in the dialect you already know (the current set is listed below). When you run CREATE FUNCTION , plx transpiles the body to plpgsql and stores that plpgsql in pg_proc.prosrc . At run time the function is executed by PostgreSQL's own plpgsql interpreter.

Dasha is an open source performance dashboard for PostgreSQL fleets. It connects to your clusters with a read-only role, shows what the databases are doing right now, and explains what to do about it. Nothing is installed on the database hosts: no agent, no extension beyond the ones you already have. One instance serves many clusters and all of their replicas. Because most PostgreSQL statistics…
