👋 Hey everyone!
I just launched VeloxDB — a blazing fast, open source PostgreSQL admin tool built with Rust. 🦀
While pgAdmin weighs 600MB+, VeloxDB is just ~6MB with <1 second startup. No Electron. No bloat. Just speed.
✨ What makes it different:

🎨 Built-in visual ER diagram designer — drag, drop, connect tables and generate migrations in one click
⚡️ Lightning fast — built natively with Rust + Tauri
🔒 Zero telemetry — your data never leaves your machine
🔑 macOS Keychain integration — no plaintext configs
🛡 SSH tunneling + SSL encryption built in
📤 Export schemas to SQL, PNG, or PDF
💸 Completely free & open source (MIT license)

We're currently at Beta on macOS and Windows & Linux coming soon.
⭐️ We need 30 GitHub stars to ship Homebrew support — every star genuinely helps!

💻 GitHub: https://github.com/abeni16/veloxdb
Would love your feedback! 🙏

Technology keeps evolving, but so do the deeper questions we ask as humans.

For this AI Meetup, we’re opening up a conversation around AI and spirituality, how technology intersects with meaning, belief, consciousness, and the human experience.

Come for an open dialogue, shared perspectives, and a welcoming space for curiosity.

🗓 May 20, 2026 (Wednesday)
⏰ 6:30 PM EAT
📍Around 22, Comet Building (next to Axum Hotel), 2nd Floor, Office 205, Addis Ababa
