Projects
A project represents a single database connection. Each project stores its own tabs, query history, and settings.
Creating a project
Click New connection at the bottom of the project dropdown. Fill in the connection details for your database engine:
- SQLite — select a
.dbor.sqlitefile - PostgreSQL — host, port, database, username, password (optional SSL)
- MySQL / MariaDB — host, port, database, username, password
- Redis — connection URL
You can also paste a connection URL directly (e.g. postgresql://user:pass@host:5432/db).
Color coding
Each project can be assigned one of 10 colors: slate, red, orange, amber, emerald, teal, blue, indigo, violet, or rose. The color appears in the sidebar and helps you tell projects apart at a glance.
Switching projects
Click any project in the dropdown to switch to it. Each project maintains its own editor tabs, results, and state independently.
Simultaneous connections
You can have multiple projects open at the same time, even across different database engines. Connections are pooled — switching back to a project reuses the existing connection.
Editing and deleting
Hover over a project in the dropdown to reveal the Edit and Share buttons. To delete a project, open the edit dialog and hold the trash button.
Read-only mode
Enable read-only mode on a project to prevent accidental writes. When enabled, inline editing and destructive queries are blocked.
