Reinventing Database Exploration with Azimutt
summary
Azimutt is a local-first database explorer implemented as a Node.js frontend with a local Gateway launched via NPX azimutt explore. It links schema, data, and documentation and supports inferred foreign keys from naming, per-table data samples and counts, layout-based diagramming, Markdown notes, optional cloud sharing, a simple schema DSL called AML, and an early-stage analysis engine; the tool already runs with about 3,000 users and handles large instances (example: 800-table Doctib instance).
