Tabiew is a lightweight terminal user interface (TUI) application written in Rust for viewing and querying tabular data files such as CSV, TSV, Parquet, JSON, Arrow, SQLite, and Excel. It supports SQL queries, vim-style keybindings, fuzzy search, multi-table navigation, plotting, and hundreds of themes.

Use cases

• view csv files in the terminal
• query parquet files with sql
• explore large tsv datasets from the command line
• inspect sqlite database tables in a tui
• preview excel spreadsheets without opening excel
• plot tabular data in the terminal
• fuzzy search rows in a data file

When to choose

• you need a fast, keyboard-driven terminal tool to explore tabular files
• you want SQL querying over CSV/Parquet/JSON without loading a full database
• you prefer vim-style navigation and a lightweight alternative to spreadsheet apps

When to avoid

• you need a GUI spreadsheet experience with mouse-driven editing
• you need to edit or write back to data files, not just view and query
• you work primarily with non-tabular data like images or free-form text
