Introducing Nexo SQL Studio Beta

We're excited to announce the first beta release of Nexo SQL Studio — the Oracle SQL and PL/SQL extension for Visual Studio Code. This is an early, feature-limited release that gives you a first look at the core experience we're building.

The beta is intentionally focused. We've shipped the foundations that make day-to-day Oracle development faster inside VS Code, and we want to hear how they work for you before adding more.

What's included in the beta

Connection Explorer

Browse your Oracle databases directly from the VS Code sidebar. Expand schemas, object types, and individual objects without leaving the editor. The explorer loads your saved connections and lets you navigate the full object hierarchy at a glance.

Object Export

Export database objects as local DDL files with a single click. Keep your schema tracked in Git and work with object definitions offline — no database connection required once the files are on disk.

Autocompletion

As you write Oracle SQL and PL/SQL, the extension queries the data dictionary and surfaces contextual suggestions: table names, column names, package members, built-in functions, and more. Completions appear inline and respect the statement context so you see only what makes sense at the cursor position.

Object Editing

Open any database object directly in the editor and compile changes back to the database. The edit workflow keeps you inside VS Code for the full authoring-and-compile cycle.

What to expect from a beta

This release is limited by design. Some features are rough around the edges, and a handful of planned capabilities are not yet included. We'll be iterating quickly based on real usage, so your feedback shapes what comes next.

If you run into anything unexpected or have ideas, use the feedback option in the extension or contact support. We read everything.

Thanks for being here at the start.
