Comment on Postgres Language Server: Initial Releaseparent

Comments

we started working on almost two years ago

Jesus, this really puts it into perspective how much effort JetBrains have put into their IDEs, which have had superb support for all popular SQL dialects for as long as I can remember. Thank you for providing the community with a FOSS alternative, because IIRC there wasn't anything remotely comparable to JetBrains up until now.

to put things into perspective: even though it took a lot of effort, it's just a side project by two people who used it to learn rust along the way. A full-time team would have finished much faster.

That's a bit of exaggeration, IntelliJ DB tool is okeish, but there is nothing special about it. Even rather dated SQL Squirell is equally good, or even better in some places (like keeping run sqls history, better configurability of unusual parameters of some more exotic databases, like, say, DB2).
