Postgres developer tools
Every listing tagged postgres, A to Z: 6 tools across 1 category. Listed in alphabetical order, not ranked.
Egres
Open-source (Apache-2.0) Postgres-compatible database written in Zig by Dgraph founder Manish Jain for heavy, multi-tenant workloads: speaks the Postgres protocol so psql, drivers and ORMs connect unchanged, runs on local disk or S3, compresses storage, needs no VACUUM, branches databases and tables instantly and meters resources per query. First release is single node with basic queries (equality-only, no joins).
Neon
Serverless Postgres with branching and autoscaling.
PlanetScale
Managed MySQL (Vitess) and Postgres database platform built for scale.
RDST
Readyset's open-source desktop agent that watches PostgreSQL or MySQL read-only, flags slow or regressed queries and proposes index, setting or rewrite fixes.
slotwatch
Open-source (MIT) terminal UI that watches PostgreSQL replication slots: how much WAL each slot holds, how fast that grows, who reads it and how long it has sat idle, worst first, with a note on why a slot was flagged. Read-only, so it never drops or changes anything. slotwatch --check gives an exit code (and optional JSON) for cron, CI or Kubernetes. Tested on Postgres 14 to 18; Homebrew, go install, Docker or release binaries.
Supabase
Open-source Postgres development platform with auth, storage, realtime and edge functions.
