3 SQL GUI tools (Sequel Pro, Dbeaver, HeidiSQL) on the front page at the same time. Has this happened before?
And none of them Electron based!
A table view, a tree view, few buttons, some dialogs.

This looks amazing, and I wish I had something similar for Postgres (which is what I use for my own projects). Kudos!

Projects like these should be celebrated through donations and this project makes it easy. When’s the last time you’ve seen freeware developer tool for macOS that’s not from a corporation with money to spare? I personally can’t think of anything beyond iTerm (utility), Homebrew (utility), ...aaand that's where my list ends.
I don't think that freeware is really a part of the Apple Developer ecosystem. Most of the MacOS exclusive software I use on a daily basis costs $20-$30, a price I'm more than willing to pay for software like Pixelmator, DaisyDisk and Alfred that is significantly more polished (and Mac-ish) then the average piece of open-source software just due to the resources available to them.
Quicksilver, while at the time a terrible mess in terms of the code is basically the forefather of all these launchers.
Apple also removed a lot of the MacOS APIs that allowed you to mod system components (e.g. input managers) around the same time.

Have you used Postico? I have both it and DataGrip but find myself primarily in Postico for Postgres, feels lighter weight and easier to navigate
Agreed that Postico is amazing. Totally worth the $40 or whatever it costs.
It hasn't been updated in a very long time. Constant crashes on Mojave. I have transitioned away to TablePlus and DataGrip. Too bad because it was a very good tool for quick edits.
Are you sure it's not actively being fixed? I see active development on GitHub with many commits. Have you reported the issue on GitHub as the website suggests?

Still, it's light years behind Sequel Pro in terms of features/completeness/quality and probably always will be :)

I don't mind paying for quality software and I think a lot macOS users feel the same way.

You know, Electron is perfect for these use cases: A table view, a tree view, few buttons, some dialogs.
I have no love for Electron. Still remember Active Desktop, MSHTML, XUL and Symbian Web Runtime.
As someone that does both native and Web fullstack, the place for Web technologies is on the browser, with approaches like PWAs.
