I had a brain fart and confused React with Electron…
No? This is a client-side electron app. You’d need something to load the initial files, but that’s it. There are no server-side running parts. Even still, there’s links in the project here to load up the app right there. Each Major browser has ways to “install” such apps from there.

Well, I assume there is a backend which takes care of securely connecting to the databases. That way I can connect the backend to the internal network where I can connect to the database, and without exposing the database port still use this from the browser.

Huh? This is a database client. There is no backend. You point it to a database, and it connects to the database. That’s all it does.
I’m not sure what other backend you may be referring to, but it will use whatever network your desktop is using for comms.

Are you sure? Because thats how dbgate works, and I thought this was similar.

Yup. This is just a straightforward client. Unfamiliar with dbgate but just looked at the docs. It’s also just a client as well. Unsure what other backend service you may have been referring to.
