A tour of Monghoul on MongoDB

What happens

A worked-in workspace: hovering a collection answers what is in it, opening it lands on a populated table, and a filter typed into the query already there is completed first with the field names the app learned from the documents and then with the values that field actually holds. The customer id in the first row opens that customer beside the value, and the referral in that customer opens the customer who referred them in a second peek beside the first. A wrong total is corrected in the cell, the status beside it is picked from a list of the six values the collection holds, and the updated date of the order is set from a calendar with a time and a timezone. In the tree a line item leads to its product and on to the category of that product. The Database Map shows the references one scan found, and the cluster monitor opens full width. A pipeline typed in the code editor is offered a field that did not exist until the stage above invented it, runs, and is read as a chart. The monitor is carried to the edge so the workspace splits, the query is saved, renamed and filed, and the whole thing is recoloured through four built-in themes, Nord Aurora first. Then a theme is grown from one colour: two preset colours and four styles, each repainting the whole app, then an exact orange brand typed in. In the theme editor, hovering a colour makes it pulse wherever the app uses it, the background and the accent are changed to charcoal and lime, and the saturation slider is drained to grey and pushed vivid before it is reset and the theme is saved.
