Antares is an SQL client based on [Electron.js](https://github.com/electron/electron) and [Vue.js](https://github.com/vuejs/vue) that aims to become a useful tool, especially for developers.
Our target is to support as many databases as possible, and all major operating systems, including the ARM versions.
**At the moment this application is in development state, many features will come in future updates**, and supports only MySQL/MariaDB, PostgreSQL and SQLite.
However, there are all the features necessary to have a pleasant database management experience, so give it a chance and send us your feedback, we would really appreciate it.
We are actively working on it, hoping to provide new cool features, improvements and fixes as soon as possible.
π If you are curious to try Antares you can download and install the [latest release](https://github.com/Fabio286/antares/releases/latest).

## Philosophy
Why are we developing an SQL client when there are a lot of them on the market?
The main goal is to develop a **forever 100% free (without paid premium feature)**, full featured, as possible community driven, cross platform and open source alternative, empowered by JavaScript ecosystem.
A modern application created with minimalism and simplicity in mind, with features in the right places, not hundreds of tiny buttons, nested tabs or submenues; productivity comes first.
## Installation
Based on your operating system you can have one or more distribution formats to choose based on your preferences.
Since Antares SQL is a free software we don't have a budget to spend on annual licenses or certificates. This can result that on some platforms you might need to put in some additional work to install this app.
### Linux
On Linux you can simply download and run the `.AppImage` distribution, install from Snap Store, from AUR or from our [PPA repository](https://github.com/antares-sql/antares-ppa).
### Windows
On Windows you can choose between downloading the app from Microsoft Store or downloading the `.exe` from our [website](https://antares-sql.app/downloads) or [this github repo](https://github.com/Fabio286/antares/releases/latest). Distributions that are not from Microsoft Store are not signed with a certificate, so to install you need to click on "More info" and then "Run anyway" on SmartScreen prompt.
### MacOS
On macOS you can run `.dmg` distribution following [this guide](https://support.apple.com/guide/mac-help/mh40616/mac) to install apps from unknown developers.
