Clutch update: a video walkthrough (PostgreSQL, JDBC, row editing, JSON hover preview)
A while ago I posted about Clutch, a database client for Emacs: https://www.reddit.com/r/emacs/s/fcKUdfBBN5
Several people asked how it actually feels to use, so I recorded a walkthrough (about 4 minutes, English captions):

What's in the video:
\- Run SQL from a normal buffer, results in an interactive grid
\- Per-column displayers (turn status codes into colored labels)
\- Rectangle select, then "Refine" to exclude rows/columns before copying as TSV/CSV/Org
\- Stage inserts, updates and deletes, and review the exact SQL before anything runs
\- Optional hover preview for long JSON cells (off by default)
\- JDBC backends (the demo uses DuckDB), plus native MySQL/PostgreSQL/SQLite/MongoDB/Redis
