QueryPad

Quick & dirty query tool with just what I need (maybe less).

TODO

Stop with non query SQL (what about transaction ?)
Use schema informations to find foreign keys
Use Dapper NuGet ?
Etc...

IDEAS

Modern UI (so WPF ?)

Configuration

Connections are defined in the file "App.Connections.secret". It's a JSON file with the following informations:
