SQLite Database Browser is a public domain, open source GUI database client for SQLite database files.
It allows developers to visualize the database structures and the data. Users do not need to know the SQL language. The spreadsheet-like interface allows easy input of data, which can be helpful in the development and testing phases of software development.
The software is written with Qt, hence available to Windows, Mac OS X and Linux. It is compatible with SQLite 2.x database files.
Since version 1.2x, SQLite Database Browser supports SQLite 3.x databases, but is no longer compatible with SQLite 2.x databases.

[edit] History
The program was originally developed by Mauricio Piacentini from Tabuleiro Produções, a Brazilian company, as the Arca Database Browser. The original version is a free companion tool to Arca Database Xtra, a commercial product that embeds SQLite databases with some additional extensions for handling of compressed and binary data.
The original code was later adjusted to be compatible with standard SQLite 2.x databases. The resulting program was renamed SQLite Database Browser, and released into the public domain by the original author. Icons were contributed by Raquel Ravanini, also from Tabuleiro.
