This looks really cool. Does anything similar exist for exploration on a SQL database?

I would love to see some notebook like interface for a SQL database with all the context awareness of Datagrips/IntelliJ’s editor but with similar visualisations like this tool.

Not exactly your answer, but microsoft is developing an open-source tool, that's visually similar to VSCode, to work on databases [1]. Sadly it only supports SQL Server, Azure SQL DB and SQL DW for now, but people are asking for additional database engine [2].

this is a pretty interesting idea. I feel like this should just be implemented at a Jupyter (kernel) level and not in an editor though....
