that is my attempt to resurrect the spirit of the FoxPro/dbase kind of tools.
Is on Rust, and is also my way to sharp my skills on it.
Now, I'm in the process of improve the parsing to be robust like in Rust, so i can show good error messages:

and also, hopefully, implement a solid type inference that work fine with the challenge of infer joins like "customer CROSS JOIN address".

The idea, long-term, is create a tool alike MS Access/FoxPro+Excel that I think could be great for a lot of companies (that are using stuff like "BigData" tools -like hadoop- when them are struggling with more fundamental issues!) and improve the condition of make business apps/analysis.
I already hear some interest when the vision is described in full, and I certain any company that use Excel/Access to deal with data and/or make business apps is anemically served by it.
The alternatives now are only for the cloud, and I instead wanna a local-first/on-premise offering...
