## What it is
Pgweb is a web-based, cross-platform PostgreSQL database explorer written in Go and distributed as a single zero-dependency binary. It provides a browser UI for browsing tables, running SQL queries, exporting data, and connecting via SSH tunnels.

## Use cases
- browse postgres tables in a browser
- run and analyze SQL queries against postgres
- export query results to CSV JSON or XML
- connect to remote postgres over SSH tunnel
- manage multiple postgres database sessions
- quickly inspect a postgres database without installing a heavy client

## When to choose
- you want a lightweight zero-dependency postgres GUI
- you need a web-based database explorer you can run on a server or locally
- you need SSH tunnel access to firewalled postgres servers
- you want a single binary that works on Mac, Linux, and Windows

## When to avoid
- you need advanced GUI features like visual schema design or ERD editing
- you need a native desktop client experience
- you primarily work with databases other than PostgreSQL
