The official page lists stable version 1.7.1 from 2013 and a 2.1.0 beta from 2020, while the Fossil timeline shows active GUI work such as WMS support, SQL filtering, MapView, and multi-threaded map painting. ### Adoption history The input package facts list spatialite-gui across Homebrew, Debian, Fedora, Nix, and Ubuntu, reflecting its role as a packaged desktop utility for GIS users who want SpatiaLite without living entirely inside a shell. ### How it is used Users run spatialite_gui to browse and edit SpatiaLite databases, execute SQL, inspect geometry-backed tables, and use GUI features that complement the command-line spatialite shell. ### Why package nerds care Package maintainers care about spatialite-gui because it sits at the awkward but important intersection of GIS libraries, SQLite extension loading, desktop GUI dependencies, and cross-platform packaging. ### Timeline - 2013: Stable version 1.7.1 was released on June 29. - 2016: The Fossil timeline records GUI work including SQL filters and EXIF-GPS image-loading support. - 2017: MapView and WMS support development appears in the Fossil timeline. - 2020: Testing version 2.1.0-beta1 was released on August 24. ### Related projects - Officially related projects include libspatialite, librasterlite2, VirtualPG, and the wider Gaia-SINS project family. ### Sources -
