There's no Sequel Pro for SQLite, and this can help
Sequel Pro can’t work with SQLite
And don’t expect to see Sequel Pro for SQLite any soon.
Sequel Pro client is hands-down one of the best clients to use when interacting with a MySQL database. It has the nice look-and-feel. It’s neat and fast. The main drawback is that Sequel Pro is only available for MySQL, on Mac OSX.
Sequel Pro team started to put in some work to support other relational databases such as SQLite or PostgreSQL a long time ago, but none of them seems to be finished.
See the full discussion in issue #362
In fact, they are still struggling with supporting the new version of MySQL. It’s reportedly crashing and not being able to connect to MySQL 8.
So, if you want to wait for a Sequel Pro version which can work with SQLite, that’s gonna take a lot of time.
