Azimutt desktop app

[loicknuchel]

Right now Azimutt is browser based and still quite capable (PWA available also). But still quite limited also.

The goal of this issue is to package and distribute Azimutt in a desktop app (Electron or Tauri) to unlock interesting features:

• local database connection
  • no more need to proxy schema extraction on server
  • perform data search
  • display table/column data stats
  • run your queries
• read local files (so Azimutt could automatically refresh the source from local files)
• write local files (so Azimutt schema could be saved in specific place, dropbox or git repo, to allow collaboration)

Hi @mingfang, I so you disliked this issue, would you be able to give a bit more context? Do you think it's not very important and other ones should be prioritized or do you think it's a bad idea?

This was done in #207

What is still missing:

• [ ] build & deploy Azimutt desktop

I believe the previous downvote to be an accidental click on the wrong icon.

Looking forward to the Electron release in the near future!

Hi @almereyda Thanks for the support. In fact the code is ready for the Electron app but we had issues publishing the apps on different platforms (encryption, developer accounts and so on). We put it on the side waiting for more demand or resources to overcome them.

Thanks for the update.
