- Full SQL Support: Query your SharePoint lists and flat files as if they were a relational database.
- Pluggable Architecture: Works in SharePoint today; works in React, Vue, or vanilla HTML tomorrow.
- Format Agnostic: Support for JSON, REST APIs, Excel (XLSX), and CSV is built into the roadmap.

"Hasta La Vista, Beta 3!"
- This is an urgent bug fix for dashboard tab issues introduced in beta 4. Thus, it's beta 4.1. Previous release notes for beta 4 follows.

- Improved filtering and made it more standard across both the query builders and the dashboard designer.
