Reltron: a GUI for exploring relational databases

I really enjoyed this and would have been great to have something like this recently. Just the other day a coworker was writing some code on top of a database I had designed. He and I were discussing some of the result sets of a couple more complex queries that he needed to operate on. Given that there were a few many-to-many joins represented by relation tables in the section of the database that we were discussing, it was difficult for us to quickly iterate on a solution even while I had the SQL command line up and was querying tables as we talked.<p>While I am a fast SQL writer, having to munge and navigate the multiple relation tables during our fast-paced discussion was a little unwieldy. A tool like this to quickly jump between joins and look at the result sets while in the midst of a technical discussion as it evolves would have been perfect.

Very nice. Great example of what a difference it makes when you can play around with something and get immediate feedback, instead of having to plan ahead, look up commands, and imagine abstract things you can&#x27;t see.
