Installation

RDBMS Playground is a single self-contained program. There is nothing to configure and no separate database to install — everything it needs is built in.

Prebuilt binaries

Download the binary for your platform, make it executable if needed, and put it somewhere on your PATH.

Note

Download links are published with each release. They are added here when the first public version ships.

Package managers

Once published, the playground will be installable through common package managers:

# macOS / Linux (Homebrew)
brew install rdbms-playground

# Windows (Scoop)
scoop install rdbms-playground

Note

Package-manager availability lands with the first public release; the exact names are confirmed here at that time.

Run it

Start the playground with no arguments and it opens a fresh, automatically named temporary project so you can start experimenting immediately:

rdbms-playground

To open an existing project, pass its path:

rdbms-playground path/to/project

Useful options (run rdbms-playground --help for the full list):

Option	What it does
--resume	Reopen the most recently used project.
--data-dir <PATH>	Use a different location for stored projects.
--theme <light|dark>	Force a theme instead of auto-detecting.
--mode <simple|advanced>	Start in a specific input mode.

Next: create your first project.
