Will this be the interface that I need?
Mathesar ( https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34999774 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34999774 ) was the last one I tried out but it couldn't support more than 250k rows without crashing and required foreign keys in order to infer relationships. Otherwise it's exactly what I want. An Excel/Airtable interface around a raw database connection.
How does Outerbase compare?

- brayden_wilmoth 4y agoWe hope that it is the interface that you need! To be entirely candid and honest, returning a lot of rows presents problems on our end as well at the moment. It's something we are actively working on improving for large data sets to create the best user experience without having to concern yourself about what you're returning. For our EZQL (natural language to SQL) you don't necessarily need to have foreign keys to infer relationships between tables. We try to infer those relationships for you.

I don't want to distract from Outerbase's launch, but if you have time, would you be able to open an issue for the crash at https://github.com/centerofci/mathesar https://github.com/centerofci/mathesar? We're still in alpha and relying on people checking out the project to report problems like these so we can fix them. Also, relationships without foreign keys is on our roadmap: https://github.com/centerofci/mathesar/discussions/2276 https://github.com/centerofci/mathesar/discussions/2276
- samanator 4y agoSure! I'll file it this weekend.
