## What it is
Sqlectron is a simple and lightweight desktop SQL client built with Electron, React, and TypeScript. It supports multiple relational databases across platforms from a single application.

## Use cases
- query multiple databases from one desktop app
- lightweight sql client for mac windows and linux
- run sql queries against postgres mysql and other relational dbs
- browse and manage database connections with a gui
- cross-database sql editor

## When to choose
- you want a lightweight, simple SQL GUI instead of a heavyweight IDE
- you need to connect to several different relational databases from one tool
- you prefer a cross-platform Electron desktop app

## When to avoid
- you need advanced features like visual schema design, ER diagrams, or data modeling
- you need a NoSQL or vector database client
