v0.14.0: Stored Routines, Windows of Their Own, and a Guard Against the Unrecoverable

v0.14.0 opens the 0.14 line: manage stored procedures and functions from the sidebar, pop a connection into its own window, browse PostgreSQL materialized views, and get a confirmation dialog before a DELETE without a WHERE — plus typo-tolerant fuzzy search everywhere and a stack of Postgres/MySQL correctness fixes.

Tabularis Joins the JetBrains Open Source Program

AI writing our queries is fine, and often better than fine. But reading skill was funded by writing, and now that the writing is gone, the reading is decaying while the volume of SQL entering our codebases goes up. Some thoughts on why SQL is the worst possible language for this to happen to.

v0.13.4 teaches SSH to prompt — unlock a hardware security key or a passphrase from an in-app dialog — pops query results out into their own window, overhauls SQL autocomplete, and lands three new community drivers (MongoDB, Cloudflare D1, Dameng) alongside a wave of correctness fixes.

Where Tabularis Keeps Its Secrets: Thank You, 1Password

An open-source project accumulates secrets like signing keys, certificates and deploy tokens, and they end up pasted across GitHub repo settings with no real story for rotation or audit. 1Password gives open-source projects a free plan, we qualified for it, and it's good enough to deserve a genuine thank-you. Here's why 1Password is a great secret manager for developers, and how we plan to move Tabularis' CI secrets into one vault and pull them into GitHub Actions with op:// references.

v0.13.3: Color Your Results, Theme Your Tabs, and Pick Up Where You Left Off

v0.13.3 is a personalization release: color query results by data type, dress the editor in a new Gruvbox theme, tint the tab bar with each connection's color, reopen the connections you had last session, and toggle CSV headers when you copy — plus a community Informix driver, driver-aware Kubernetes ports, and louder MCP approval alerts.
