Show HN: A VS Code Extension for Genesis DB – The event sourcing database

4 points

8 months ago

I've been working on an extension that brings the full Genesis DB experience directly into Visual Studio Code. Genesis DB itself is a production-ready event-sourcing database engine, and with this extension you can now:

- Manage multiple connections (dev, staging, prod) with token-based authentication

- Explore events via a built-in Event Explorer UI

- Commit new events, run GDBQL queries, and instantly view results

- Manage schemas (register, browse, validate) directly in the editor

- Use built-in GDPR features like event erasure, without leaving VS Code

The goal: no more context switching between CLI, APIs, and docs, everything integrated into the editor you already use.

You can check out the extension here: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=patricec...

I'd love to hear what you think: Is this something that would help your workflow? What would you expect from a database extension in VS Code?
