redis/redisdesktopmanager

How redis/redisdesktopmanager works

RESP.app is a Qt/QML desktop GUI for working with Redis. The main workflow starts with configuring or selecting a connection, then browsing databases and keys and opening values for inspection or editing. The application also provides a command console, server statistics, bulk key operations, and embedded or remote data formatters. The sampled sources show application wiring, connection management, database browsing, bulk-operation dispatch, and remote formatter requests; several other feature links are documented only by module presence and are left unverified.
