How to open and inspect an SQLite database in your browser
View tables, schema, and limited query results locally without installing a desktop database app.
Quick answer
An SQLite database is usually a single binary file with tables and indexes. A browser viewer can load a copy into memory and run read-only queries without uploading it.
Step by step
Make a backup, select the database, inspect the table list and schema, preview a limited number of rows, then run focused SELECT or read-only PRAGMA statements. Export only non-sensitive results you need.
Common mistakes
Do not open an untrusted database in a privileged production tool, assume every .db file is SQLite, or run unbounded queries on a huge file. WAL or journal companion files may contain newer state.
Completion check
Confirm expected tables, row counts, text encoding, and application version. Close the page to release the in-memory copy and keep the original unchanged.
