Visual CockroachDB Workspace

CockroachDB GUI Client for Windows, macOS, and Linux

VisuaLeaf is one visual workspace for distributed SQL: browse tables spread across your CockroachDB cluster, explore JSONB columns in a tree, build SQL and JOINs visually, auto-draw ER diagrams from your foreign keys, and chart the results. Because CockroachDB is PostgreSQL-wire compatible, horizontally scalable, and resilient across regions, VisuaLeaf connects and works with it right away.

The CockroachDB GUI Built for Understanding Your Data

CockroachDB is powerful, but a distributed cluster spreads data across many nodes and tables, multi-table joins get harder to read, relationships stay buried in foreign keys, and raw result grids are hard to scan. VisuaLeaf turns CockroachDB into a visual workspace where you can explore distributed tables, build queries, map relationships, compare schemas, and visualize results.

Distributed schemas are hard to navigate

Data spread across many nodes and dozens of tables is difficult to scan and keep in your head.

Complex joins become unreadable

Multi-table joins and subqueries are hard to follow, debug, and reason about from raw SQL alone.

Relationships stay hidden

Foreign keys and table relationships are not obvious until you map them out visually.

Results are hard to read at a glance

Wide result sets in a raw grid make it hard to spot patterns without charts or a cleaner view.

A visual workflow for CockroachDB development

Explore distributed tables, build queries, map relationships, compare schemas, and visualize results — all in one clean workspace.

Built Around What Makes CockroachDB CockroachDB

Distributed SQL, JSONB, foreign keys, and a PostgreSQL-compatible interface, explored, queried, and visualized instead of parsed from text.

Table Management

Manage tables across your cluster visually instead of hand-writing DDL. Add, rename, and edit columns with their types, defaults, primary keys, and foreign keys, then work across tabbed panels for indexes, constraints, and storage. Hit Show DDL to read the full CREATE TABLE statement any time.

Table Management

JSONB & Distributed Tables

CockroachDB is PostgreSQL-compatible and supports JSONB, so you can expand JSONB columns in a nested tree, filter with the ->, ->> and @> operators, and edit nested values without hand-writing SQL. Browse and query tables distributed across the cluster as ordinary schemas and tables, without worrying about which node holds which range.

JSONB and distributed tables

ER Diagrams from Foreign Keys

Auto-draw an interactive ER diagram from your real foreign keys and constraints, spanning multiple databases and schemas across the cluster, then drill into columns, indexes, constraints, and CREATE statements.

A Visual Workflow for Everyday CockroachDB Tasks

VisuaLeaf connects the steps CockroachDB users usually handle separately: connect to any cluster, explore distributed tables and JSONB, build SQL, and visualize the results.

Built for Different CockroachDB Users

Whether you model data in JSONB, work across a distributed cluster, review schemas, or learn SQL, VisuaLeaf gives you a clearer way to work with CockroachDB.

Developers

Model data with JSONB and standard SQL types, and debug the queries your app runs against real distributed rows.

DBAs and Data Teams

Compare schemas, browse tables across nodes, and manage a resilient, multi-region cluster from one workspace.

Data Analysts

Write JOINs and filters, query JSONB, and chart the results without a separate BI pipeline.

Students and Beginners

Learn distributed SQL visually, see foreign keys as ER diagrams and turn the query builder into readable SQL.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is VisuaLeaf a good CockroachDB GUI?
Yes. VisuaLeaf gives CockroachDB a visual workspace: browse distributed tables across nodes, expand JSONB columns in a tree instead of a cramped cell, auto-generate ER diagrams from real foreign keys, build SQL with JOINs visually, and chart the results. Because CockroachDB is Postgres-wire compatible, VisuaLeaf works with it out of the box.
Does it connect using a Postgres-compatible connection string?
Yes. CockroachDB speaks the PostgreSQL wire protocol, so VisuaLeaf connects with a standard Postgres-compatible connection string over SSL or an SSH tunnel. Point it at a local node, a self-hosted cluster, or a managed CockroachDB endpoint and start browsing tables right away.
Can I view and edit JSONB columns visually?
Yes. CockroachDB supports the JSONB type, and VisuaLeaf renders JSONB columns as an expandable tree so you can inspect nested keys and arrays inline, filter with the ->, ->> and @> operators, and edit nested values without hand-writing SQL.
Can it work with CockroachDB Cloud (Serverless/Dedicated)?
Yes. VisuaLeaf connects to self-hosted CockroachDB clusters and to CockroachDB Cloud, including Serverless and Dedicated, over SSL. Provide your cluster's Postgres-compatible connection details and VisuaLeaf reads databases, schemas, and tables across the cluster.
Does the visual query builder support JOINs and complex SQL?
Yes. The visual builder covers SELECT, WHERE, JOIN, GROUP BY, ordering, and limits, and because CockroachDB is Postgres-compatible it understands standard SQL constructs. Every query has an export-to-SQL button, so you keep clean, editable SQL you can run against any node.
Does it generate ER diagrams from CockroachDB schemas?
Yes. VisuaLeaf reads foreign keys, primary keys, and constraints from the information_schema to auto-draw an interactive ER diagram across your CockroachDB databases and schemas, so you can drill into tables, columns, and relationships that are otherwise buried in DDL.
Can I browse distributed tables across a CockroachDB cluster?
Yes. VisuaLeaf presents the logical schema of your cluster as ordinary databases, schemas, and tables, so you can browse and query distributed tables without thinking about which node holds which range. Data stays consistent across the cluster while you explore it visually.

More Than a CockroachDB Client

VisuaLeaf started as a MongoDB workspace and grew into a multi-database visual environment. One app, one workflow, across the databases your team actually uses.

And VisuaLeaf does not leave you staring at a wall of SQL and grids. It visualizes everything — CockroachDB schemas become interactive diagrams, queries become visual builders, and results become charts and dashboards.

Built by Developers, For Developers

VisuaLeaf is made by an independent software studio that ships often and listens to the developers who use it every day.
