OrcaQ is a modern desktop application designed for managing, querying, and manipulating data across various database management systems (DBMS) in an intuitive, fast, and secure manner. Built with [Electron](https://www.electronjs.org/), [Vue 3](https://vuejs.org/), [TypeScript](https://www.typescriptlang.org/), and [Vite](https://vitejs.dev/), it targets developers, data engineers, analysts, DBAs, or anyone who needs to work with SQL/PostgreSQL data on the desktop.

• 🚀 Cross-platform Desktop App: Runs smoothly on Windows, macOS, and Linux thanks to Electron.
• 🖥️ Modern UI/UX: Minimalist interface with dark mode support, drag & drop, and flexible sidebar.
• ⚡ Quick Query: Fast data querying with preview, filtering, and dynamic field search.
• 📝 Raw SQL Editor: Write and execute SQL queries with multiple layout modes (vertical/horizontal).
• 🗂️ Explorer: Browse database structures, tables, schemas, and files.
• 🔒 Workspace & Connection Management: Manage multiple connections and independent workspaces.
• 🛠️ Hotkey Support: Supports shortcuts for faster operations.
• ⚙️ Electron Backend: Leverages Node.js, native modules, and OS integration.
