Release Tad 0.10.0 · antonycourtney/tad

New Features

Tad now uses DuckDb instead of SQLite, enabling much better load times and interactive performance, especially for large data files.
Added direct support for Parquet and compressed CSV files.
Added a new Data Sources sidebar showing available tables, data files and folders, and allowing fast switching between them.
Tad can open DuckDb and SQLite Database files:
```
$ tad myDatabase.duckdb
```
or
```
$ tad myDatabase.sqlite
```
Ability to open filesystem directories directly for quick browsing and exploration of collections of tabular data files.

This release is a major restructuring and rewrite of the Tad internals:

Implementation now structured as a Lerna monorepo, split into 12 sub-modules.
Implementation ported to TypeScript and UI code updated to React Hooks
Main pivot table React component (tadviewer) built as an independent module, enabling embedding in other applications
Experimental proof-of-concept packaging of Tad as a web app and a reference web server, illustrating how Tad could be deployed on the web.
Experimental proof-of-concept support for other database backends (Snowflake, BigQuery, AWS Athena)
