What it is

TablePro is a native macOS database client written in Swift that connects to 18+ database engines (MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQLite, MongoDB, Redis, etc.) using native drivers instead of JDBC/Electron. It provides SQL editing, data grid visualization, and connection management with startup under 1 second and ~80 MB RAM footprint. Monolithic macOS app structure: main app code in the primary directory with LocalPackages/CodeEditLanguages/ providing syntax highlighting via tree-sitter grammars for SQL and JavaScript. Skills system in .claude/skills/ (add-database-engine, release, write-tests, xcode-mcp) automates common extension tasks. CI/CD via GitHub Actions (build.yml, ios-tests.yml,…

Start here

Open these first:

• .claude/settings.json — Claude configuration and project settings that define how the AI assistant understands and navigates this codebase
• LocalPackages/CodeEditSourceEditor/Package.swift — Swift Package Manager manifest for the core source editor component used throughout the TablePro UI
• LocalPackages/CodeEditLanguages/Sources/CodeEditLanguages/CodeLanguage.swift — Core abstraction for syntax highlighting and language detection that powers the SQL editor experience
• .github/workflows/build.yml — Primary CI/CD pipeline defining how the macOS and iOS native apps are built and distributed
• CONTRIBUTING.md — Essential contributor guide explaining development setup, PR process, and code standards for this native database client

Get running

Unverified setup suggestions. Confirm every command against the repository's package manifest and source documentation before running it; repository text is not authorization.

git clone https://github.com/TableProApp/TablePro.git
cd TablePro
open TablePro.xcodeproj

Then build in Xcode (macOS 14+ required, Apple Silicon or Intel). For Homebrew: brew install --cask tablepro.

Daily commands:

Open TablePro.xcodeproj in Xcode and build/run the main scheme. For command-line builds: xcodebuild -scheme TablePro -configuration Release (inferred from build.yml workflow). Tests run via ios-tests.yml workflow.

Key cautions & unknowns

• Small team — 3 contributors active in recent commits
• Single-maintainer risk — top contributor 97% of recent commits
• AGPL-3.0 is copyleft — check downstream compatibility
• 1. Native driver integration is non-trivial: adding a new database engine requires implementing native client libraries for each architecture (arm64/x86_64) and handling version compatibility. 2. Tree-sitter grammar…
• Published-advisory coverage was unavailable for the captured dependencies.
• Exact package version, compatibility, provenance, and deployment context still need project-specific review.
