Editing Database in VS Code via SQLTools Plugin

2023-04-06

Lately I’ve been using the plugin SQLTools for VS Code for viewing and editing SQL databases.

It’s easy to set up (don’t forget to install the required drivers for your database engine, see the description of SQLTools) and easy to use.

I have not yet figured out, why it sometimes would open the result of a query in a new editor pane. Besides that, I find it comfortable to be able to quickly view and edit the database right from my editor.

By the way, this extension also works if you’re working on a remote environment via VS Codes Remote-SSH tools.
