I wanted a SQL editor that didn’t crash, that didn’t come stuffed with too much junk, that worked amazing on a Mac, that offered a free version, and that didn’t break the bank.Ī few years later, I can happily report that Postico met each of those challenges and more. I needed a stable, easy-to-use SQL editor that I could quickly connect to local databases and remote databases (usually Postgres databases on Heroku). Needing a SQL Editor, I checked out a bunch, but eventually landed on Postico.

Parachuting into the Serenity of Open Source I dove headfirst into Ruby on Rails and Postgres, usually doing all my work in the Heroku world (I love Heroku!). When I parachuted out of that company I didn’t want to fork out thousands of dollars for my dev tools, so I took the plunge into the open source world. I used to dream in SQL in those days, but that’s a story for another day. Quick backstory: many many moons ago I spent most of my days gazing upon SQL Server Management Studio as my SQL editor of choice. Come along with me as I review Postico, a SQL editor specifically designed for PostgreSQL on Macs. Perhaps reading reviews on each would serve you better? Let’s try that instead. Why not choose based on the tried-and-true method of which mascot would win in a fight? Who would walk out of the ring victorious?Ī cat? A beaver? A girl who grows up in the Swiss Alps with her grandfather ? A question for the ages (I personally would vote for the Beaver)! Navicat ? HeidiSQL ? DBeaver ? Postico? You could spend weeks trying them all out. That question spikes anxiety and causes night terrors to crawl up the spines of the best of us.
