Just curious, what tool do you use to write SQL today and how much time do you spend doing it? Would you be interested in this to reduce the time you spend writing SQL?
I think anyone who uses sql would find this tool (and a lot of similar abstractions) too imprecise, verbose, and error prone.
What's the longest bridge in mariland - or was it merryland (or maybe state_code=MD), is it in bridges table or bridge, or maybe bridge_specs joined on bridges by some id...I'll just write my sql in my favorite sql autocomplete tool.
I agree, but I was thinking it could give people that don't know much SQL a starting point. They could ask a natural language question > get SQL > tweak SQL. So in your example, they might get something back like:
SELECT MAX(length) FROM bridges WHERE state = 'merryland'
And they could recognize the error of merryland vs. MD.
