## What it is
Antares SQL is a free, open-source desktop SQL client built with Electron and Vue.js, focused on a modern, productivity-driven user experience. It supports MySQL/MariaDB, PostgreSQL, SQLite, and Firebird, offering connection management, table/view/trigger editing, query autocomplete, history, SSH tunnels, and data import/export.

## Use cases
- manage mysql and postgresql databases from a desktop gui
- run and format sql queries with autocomplete
- browse and edit tables, views, triggers and stored routines
- connect to databases over ssh tunnel
- generate fake test data for database tables
- import and export database dumps
- search query history

## When to choose
- you want a free SQL client with no premium features or subscriptions
- you need a modern, cross-platform GUI for MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQLite, or Firebird
- you prefer a lightweight alternative to DBeaver or commercial clients
- you need SSH tunneling and manual commit modes in a desktop client

## When to avoid
- you need databases beyond MySQL/MariaDB, PostgreSQL, SQLite, or Firebird
- you need a web-based or team-collaboration database client
- you require very advanced enterprise features like schema diffing or performance dashboards
- you need a fully mature, battle-tested tool for critical production work
