I get what he meant, but tools like Navicat as far as I know were unknown DB client tools, someone had to trust that it wouldnt mess up their PROD db somehow.

Then again, never use a new DB tool on a PROD DB, always test in lower environments.

Sure, if the product fits the market needs, some people will start using (and I can see there was an increase in CLI installations yesterday from NPM).

So hypothetically yes, you can build trust overtime (Navicat has over 20 years of development), for every N users who don't trust it now, there is 1 yolo guy who just said "Yeah, this might help me do my job".

I should've presented this post in a different way. A lot of people that came here expected production ready tool, while the reality is that I did this in my free time to help me do my job, I wrote landing page in 10 minutes, and I published this post to get some feedback to see if it is something that may be interesting.

And based on what I read, I think there is interest for this tool.
