DB Pro Studio – A self-hosted, collaborative database client

Runs in the browser, ships as a Docker image, and emphasizes shared connections, collaborative queries and dashboards — nice for teams that want DB access without handing out credentials. The UI in the screenshot looks thoughtful (mobile-ready panels, query editor, change diffs), but the product sits in a crowded niche; the site should call out concrete differentiators like RBAC, audit logging, connection pooling or performance to justify switching from existing tools.
