indiDatabase

indiDatabase is a desktop database for people who are not programmers, in

the tradition of FileMaker Pro and Lotus Approach. Design tables, draw

forms, save finds, and print reports — everything lives in one file on

your own computer, and the whole office can work in it together over your

own network with no server product and no cloud.

Features include:

Tables designed point-and-click, with nine field types including exact decimal amounts for money

Forms drawn for each table, with find-by-filling-in-the-form, related-record panels, and buttons that run the day's routine

Six kinds of reports: grouped lists, certificates, Avery label sheets, form letters, crosstabs, and charts — with questions asked when a report runs

Saved finds with found-set counts, and a Summarise mode that groups and totals without a formula

Calculated fields, summary fields over related records, validation rules, starting values, and relationships on one field pair or several

Conditional formatting and named styles, stored in the file so every desk draws the same warnings

A Home dashboard of pinned reports and worksheets, the same on every desk

Multi-user sharing on your own network: pairing codes, TLS with pinned fingerprints, live updates, record locking by name, and a field-by-field merge when two people collide

Users, roles, record-level and field-level security, and an audit trail stamped by the engine

Import from CSV and legacy dBase files (including FoxPro-era memo files); export the found set to CSV

Automatic backups with restore points, taken safely while the file is in use

indiDatabase respects your privacy and works entirely offline. Your

database is a single SQLite-backed file on your own computer and never

leaves your machine.
