Tabularis has been accepted into the SignPath.io open source program: a free code signing certificate from the SignPath Foundation for our Windows releases.

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.

Translating Tabularis, the Right Way: Why We Chose Tolgee

Tabularis ships in 8 languages, but contributing a translation has meant editing raw JSON in a Git diff with no idea where the string lived. We've picked Tolgee to change that: open source, self-hostable, context-rich translating. Tolgee is also backing the project while we do it. Here's the honest why, and what's coming: community translations from the web, delivered over the air, with in-app translating as the long-term goal.

We Vibe-Coded a Database-Themed Platformer

We gave Fable 5 a single day and accidentally shipped a browser platformer themed entirely around Tabularis — three database worlds, boss mascots, hidden plugins. It's free, it's open source, and we're not game developers. If you are, let's build new worlds together.

Fable 5 Opened a 1,800-Line PR on Tabularis in 30 Minutes

A Tabularis dev experiment: we asked Fable 5 to add a CLI to the app and went to make coffee. We came back to a draft PR — 1,800 lines of Rust, 37 tests, a refactor we'd have done ourselves, and two pre-existing bugs quietly fixed.

Your Database GUI Shouldn't Need an Account

A database client is the most credential-dense application on a developer's machine. Routing any part of it through a vendor account inverts the trust model — and you usually find out why that matters on the day the vendor pivots.
