[Edit Nov. 16th] I've realized there is a sqlite3 client for the command line. Any hint or example how to use it (or libsqlite3) within a Qt program?

This wish is similar to the just posted question about a native Spreadsheet app (see https://together.jolla.com/question/59380/native-app-spreadsheet/): a native app offering a frontend interface to the installed SQLite database would be a great thing. Of course, it should not run as root, or you could mess with many important system DBs. But having a way to store data in a modern way and be able to query with some SQL based filters would be great. The output would have to be in some table format, hence the relation to the mentioned question about a spreadsheet (reusable widget).

There is an extension for Firefox (https://code.google.com/p/sqlite-manager/) but I'm not sure whether this would work with the Jolla browser.

This would probably only work well inside the Android/Dalvik container. I'm thinking more about something based on Qt-SQL and Qt-Widgets (both Qt5), like here:

http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5/qtsql-sqlbrowser-example.html

Anyone interested in porting this example for Jolla? I think Sailfish-Silica might not be adequate for this kind of app.

I'm puzzled as to why you think Sailfish-Silica might not be adequate for this kind of app when there was a version for the N900. Take a look http://my-maemo.com/software/applications.php?fldAuto=1928&faq=58 for details.

Why not try and contact Felipe Crochik and ask if he's interested in porting it to Sailfish?

Thanks for the link! I will try to contact the author of this sqlite client. Regarding Sailfish-Silica, I am really a newbie on this, I had only a quick look at some Qt-Quick or Qt-Widgets grid components in Qt-Creator and didn't find equivalent ones in Sailfish-Silica. Any hint would be greatly appreciated.
