NodeQL is now in public preview

We just tagged the first public preview of NodeQL, our local-first desktop app for learning, designing, and running SQL with visual blocks. It's free, it's offline, and it doesn't ask you for an account.

What "preview" means here

Preview means the core workbench, the plugin SDK, and local SQLite support are all solid enough to use daily — but the published binaries are currently unsigned. On macOS and Windows that means you'll see a first-launch security prompt. That's expected, not a red flag, but we wanted to be upfront about it rather than call this a 1.0.

What's in the box

Try it

Linux, macOS, and Windows builds are up on the NodeQL page. If something breaks, open an issue — we read every one ourselves.
