Prairie (BisonDB Desktop Client)
Compass-style cross-platform desktop GUI for BisonDB — browse documents, run filtered queries with explain plans, manage indexes, and import/export over the BisonDB wire protocol.
Prairie is the official desktop client for BisonDB — a MongoDB Compass-style GUI built with Tauri 2 and React for browsing documents, running queries, and managing a BisonDB instance visually.
Highlights
- Visual querying — filter documents with a live query bar and inspect index-aware explain plans for every query.
- Index & data management — create and drop indexes, import and export collections, and edit documents in place.
- Zero-setup local mode — bundles the bisond engine as a Tauri sidecar, so it can open a local database directory with no daemon to start.
- Secure by default — speaks the BisonDB wire protocol v2 (authentication + TLS); session tokens live only in the Rust backend, never in web storage.
- Command palette (Ctrl / Cmd-K) for rapid navigation across collections and views.
