What’s wrong with psql? Those seem like clutches for the Real Thing which you must understand anyway.

- jbverschoor 4y agoSure… go write your next application in assembler using line edit
- yu-carm-kror 4y agoI don’t think the analogy is correct. One is an abstraction to remove low level commands and the other is a GUI that applies the same commands.
- RunawayGalaxy 4y agoIt's all abstractions provided via interfaces, whether programmatic or graphical.
- mike_pol 4y agoWhilst I agree with you for writing queries, the gui tools provide some nice tools. I haven’t used postico but I regularly use sequel pro and the ease to write a query and export results via csv that non technical people might need is a great feature. I’m sure there is a way to do it in command line but for me I find it a lot easier as I’m not a db admin. Also gui tools are really useful for visualising content in tables with a lot of columns.
