Installing DB Browser for SQLite

On this page, you’ll find instructions for installing SQLite tools for Windows and Mac.

🔹 Intro

SQLite is a lightweight, file-based database engine. It’s so lightweight that you don’t really need to "install" it like traditional software.

In fact, if you're using Python, you only need to install a library like sqlalchemy to start interacting with SQLite databases in no time.

However, we're going to install a very helpful tool for managing SQLite databases - DB Browser.

🔸 What is the DB Browser?

DB Browser for SQLite is a graphical interface for SQLite databases.

You can use it to navigate through your database structure visually, view its actual data, run queries, and even design and create new databases.

It's a very useful tool, that we will use alongside our Python scripts wherever we are working with a SQLite db.
