TablePlus

TablePlus is a popular database developer console with built-in integrations with major databases including PostgreSQL, Cassandra, and Redis. It is free to get started with the option of upgrading to a perpetual paid license. TablePlus works with YugabyteDB without any issues because the YugabyteDB APIs are compatible at the wire protocol level with databases already supported by TablePlus.
