Isn't Pebble Templates similar to this?

Have you tried https://pebbletemplates.io/ for Java?

I haven't used it extensively, so I can't speak how it compares to Django in larger setups.

+1 for DBeaver

I've started using it only recently and I'm really pleased with it. I am using Oracle and Postgres constantly, and this was the first tool that worked really nice with both out of the box.

That said, it could use some more features, but all in all, very nice tool.

I've also tried OxDBE, but got feeling that it was not finished at all. Half of stuff was really annoying to use. I was never sure what was commited and what not. Adding columns to table worked sometimes, and sometimes it would just hang. In the end I was writing SQL by hand for even the trivial tasks. Not something I need IDE for. Hopefully they can improve it in the future, because other products from JetBrains are great.

Why does this site eat 50% of my CPU?

I've always liked this one: https://workaround.org/ispmail/wheezy

And it's not for Debian only, I'm running it on Arch by following this tutorial.
