Welcome to the Tour

This tour walks you through RQL interactively. Here's how to use the UI:

Editor controls (top-right of each snippet):

  • [[]] expand to fullscreen (Esc to exit)
  • [cp] copy code to clipboard
  • [↺] reset code to original

Running a statement:

  • Click [run] or press Ctrl+Enter / Cmd+Enter

Navigation:

  • [< prev] / [next >] buttons at the bottom
  • / arrow keys (when not typing in the editor)
  • Dot indicators to jump to any step directly

Extra widgets (appear on some steps):

  • [refresh] on the ASCII bar chart: re-queries the DB after running the snippet above

Try [run] on the snippet below, then press [next >] to begin.
