Why we included this project

Mathesar wraps a spreadsheet-style front end around an existing PostgreSQL database, so colleagues who never learned SQL can still look at data, edit rows, and run queries without calling a developer. It works against the real schemas and tables rather than maintaining a second copy of the data, and access control comes straight from native Postgres roles and privileges. Because it is self-hosted and deploys quickly, it suits teams that want non-developers to collaborate on production data while everything stays inside their own infrastructure. For engineering leads who want a lightweight internal tool, that is the draw: less friction for the people doing the work, with no need to replace or move the database they already run.
