DBDelve: Open-Source Rust and GPUI Database Client Claims Big Speed and Memory Gains Over DBeaver

·1 views

Developer Shayan has released DBDelve, an open-source database client built with Rust and the GPUI framework, aimed at being fast and pleasant to use. In the developer's own benchmarks on an M1 Pro Mac, DBDelve 0.3.6 launched in 1.1 seconds versus 5.2 seconds for DBeaver 25.3.1, and idled at 133 MB of memory compared with 606 MB. The tool offers read-only, read-write and full-access modes, customizable keybindings, project-based connection organization, and can import connections from DBeaver and TablePlus. The app is not yet signed and notarized by Apple, and it lacks feature parity with more mature clients, with the project still in early development.

New Mac App Photographs Unrecognized Users and Alerts Owner Remotely

Someone Was Here is a menu bar app for macOS that takes a photo of anyone using the Mac while the owner is away, whether the machine was left unlocked or the person knows the password. If the face does not match the owner's, the photo is sent to the owner's iPhone. The app uses Apple Vision and on-device Core ML face recognition, and all processing happens locally with no tracking or ads. Real-time alerts are available through a one-time $4.99 lifetime purchase, delivered via a free companion iPhone or iPad app, Pushover, ntfy, Telegram, or a webhook. The project was shared by its developer on Hacker News, where it gained a few points.

MeowDisplay: Open-Source App Turns an iPhone or iPad Into a Mac Display

A developer has released MeowDisplay, a free and open-source app that lets users control a Mac from an iPhone, iPad, or Mac, with Android support in closed testing. The project began as a fork of OpenDisplay, which supplied the foundational screen capture, virtual display, and encoding, and the developer has since shifted it toward a phone-first design. Its features include a split-screen window view, traditional mirror and extend modes, several touch input options, and Apple Pencil support. The developer reports using it to perform small tasks remotely over a 5G connection while traveling. A floating windows feature is planned for the 2.1 release.
