Roadmap to 1.0
LakeDB grows through clear product milestones. This roadmap records the evolution from 0.1 to today's 0.10.3 beta and defines the remaining trust work before a stable 1.0.
The milestones tell the product story and do not all map one-to-one to archived downloadable binaries. The latest release is the supported download.
| Version | Theme | Product milestone |
|---|---|---|
| 0.1 | Foundation | The first focused local MySQL and MariaDB desktop foundation. |
| 0.2 | Connections | Multiple connections, folders, environments, SSL/SSH and independent workspaces. |
| 0.3 | SQL workspace | SQL editing, tabs, object exploration, history, favorites and result navigation. |
| 0.4 | Safe data | Table editing, read-only mode, production safeguards, filtering, paging and data exchange. |
| 0.5 | Database tools | Diagnostics, configuration backup, backup/restore, schema comparison and table copy. |
| 0.6 | Cross-platform | macOS, Windows and Linux packages, English/Spanish UI, international documentation and community. |
| 0.7 beta | Resilience | Update notices, safe restores, tab/crash recovery, migration snapshots, credential binding and accessibility checks. |
| 0.8 beta | Safe editing polish | Visible pending-row states, positional duplication, structured large-value editing and validation feedback. |
| 0.9 beta | Migration, workspace clarity and large exports | Migration Studio, safer backup/restore, clearer active-connection workspaces and configurable streaming exports up to 50 million rows. |
| 0.10 beta — current | Smarter SQL and table workflow | Split query/table panes, schema-aware completion, alias and index guidance, flexible formatting, typed cell editors and filters driven by selected values. |
Trusted installation flows, code signing, macOS notarization, publisher identity and a documented package-verification path.
Update discovery, preserved workspace state and guarded local-data migrations are now in beta validation.
Keyboard navigation, focus and screen-reader improvements now include automated serious/critical checks. Onboarding, broader beta feedback, performance and visual consistency remain ongoing.
A documented compatibility matrix, stable local-data migrations and broader release-candidate testing focused on safety and upgrade blockers.
Version 1.0 is the stable LakeDB Free foundation: dependable, documented and upgrade-safe for daily MySQL and MariaDB work across supported platforms. Existing Free essentials do not move behind a subscription at 1.0.
Longer-term Pro exploration includes Lake AI, a schema-aware AI agent, cloud sync, dashboards, scheduled queries and team collaboration. Free remains the local foundation; Pro adds automation and collaboration inside the same application.
