Not investment advice. Muhabbit scores how much a story may matter, not which way to trade.
Rustable, a database client written entirely in Rust, has released version 0.4.7, adding support for MySQL 8.4, MariaDB 11.4, and standalone Redis 7.4 alongside its existing PostgreSQL and SQLite engines, with a browser-based WASM demo running real SQLite and an in-memory Redis instance. The desktop app ships for macOS (Apple Silicon, signed and notarized), Windows x64, and Linux, and features SSH tunnels, schema browsing, saved queries, reviewable row edits, and a GPU-rendered UI built on egui that redraws at the monitor's refresh rate. The release emphasizes performance through reused connections, virtualized rows, and work kept off the UI thread, positioning Rustable against established database tools by targeting a broader user base with the same SQL functionality. Redis support is limited to standalone deployments—key browsing, commands, string edits, and TTL controls—with Cluster and Sentinel excluded, and real Redis server connections remain desktop-only. The company says more database engines are on the way, so watch for expanded engine coverage and how the early-stage product (v0.4.7) converts its irreverent marketing into professional adoption.
