I am currently building a powerful TUI database client (that supports Turso as well) as I grew fed up with heavy db clients that take gigabytes of ram when rendering data that is text. It's also very convenient since you can launch it with a saved connection from any terminal anywhere.

It's still early in 0.1v at https://github.com/okira-e/TUIQL but already supports everything day-to-day that you would need.

Every time I needed to inspect a database, I either had to wait for a bloated GUI client to chew through my RAM or struggle through psql, which isn’t great for actually visualizing data. So I built a TUI database client focused on one thing: connecting fast and letting you browse tables as datagrids and rows as JSON, with near-instant startup and vim-style keyboard navigation.

Still in the early days but already handles most of what you would expect from an SQL database client.

You declare flows that contain requests that export outputs to each other creating a deterministic sequence of requests.
