TL;DR; Why yuniql?

It's raw SQL. Yuniql follows database-first approach in versioning your database. Versions are normal directories or folders. Scripts are series of plain old .sql files. No special tool or language required.

It's .NET Core Native. Released as a self-contained .NET Core 3.0 application. Yuniql doesn't require any dependencies or CLR installed on the developer machine or CI/CD server. For windows, yuniql.exe is ready-for-use on day 1.

Bulk Import CSV. Load up your master data and lookup tables from CSV files. A powerful feature when provisioning fresh developer databases or when taking large block of master data as part of a new version.
