csvql — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for csvql?
csvql runs on your own machine over stdio — there is no network address to reach, so uptime cannot be measured for it by anyone.
Is csvql open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in Zig, 30 stars on GitHub and 26 open issues. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
