Quicklook app for sqlite and data files
Hello! I am the developer of multiple quicklook plugins including FinderPeek and GIS quick viewer, this post is about another plugin: Quick data insights.
Problem:
This plugins acts as a very lightweight viewer to allow you to get a peek at multiple data file formats without installing any software to open it. If you typically deal with these files, need to inspect the schema, copy SQL CREATE statements, render jupyter notebooks, or just view some structured data, this will come handy to view all of that by just hitting the spacebar in finder.
Features includes:
- Instant Data Preview: View the first 100 rows of any supported file without loading the entire dataset into memory.
- Schema Insights: Visualize table structures and relationships instantly.
- One-Click SQL Export: Copy the CREATE TABLE statement directly to your clipboard for quick migration or documentation.
- Jupyter Rendering: View notebooks as clean, rendered documents instead of raw JSON.
- Code Extraction: Copy the logic out of a notebook and into a Python script with a single click.
Comparison:
I am not familiar of any other app that supports the same files and features as a simple quicklook plugin, there are multiple apps but mostly either only support sqlite, or are full apps not a quicklook plugin.
Some app that supports only some of the file types:
- QuickLook Pro
- Parquet Viewer
Pricing:
Lifetime $4.99

Refresh+ Monitor, Inkline, Compress & upload, Quitala, and My styles: Set of small safari extensions
Created this set of extensions for safari, as I have always felt that it's lagging behind in some of the basic micro tools. It's a bit hard to get to the bottom of how to master the safari extension pipeline, it becomes easier to continue using the first basis.
Hopefully they are useful to some of you, appreciate any feedback and suggestions.
Refresh+ Monitor: A tool that allows timed refreshes of tabs in safari, it also monitors for words/regex/selectors, and alters the user when found. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/refresh-monitor/id6781175249
Inkline: Converts any image inline to a coloring page by applying computer vision algorithms to detect outer outline, 100% local. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/inkline-image-to-line-art/id6775072686
Compress & Upload: Natively override all image upload elements to allow users to compress on the fly before uploading, selecting the compression ratio, file types, and crop area. 100% local. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/compress-upload-for-safari/id6760980619
Quitala: Remove any image background on the fly and copy to clipboard. 100% local. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/quitala-remove-backgrounds/id6770151076

Auto refresh tabs with a timer
I recently created this extension as I frequently need to track pages for strings, and do constant refreshes. So I created this to serve both.
It allows users to set a timer for auto refresh tabs, and optionally watching for string, or REGEX, alarming the user once found.
You can check it here https://apps.apple.com/us/app/refresh-monitor/id6781175249?mt=12
Interested to get feedback and suggestions!
