To add to this, there are a couple of main reasons we're experimenting with this:

1) Query Tools, psql, and the Schema diff are disconnected and independent from the treeview once launched (in fact, that's always the case for schema diff). Moving those tools out into separate workspaces de-clutters the UI, reducing the number of tabs visible when browsing the schema, and allowing more space and a more focussed look and feel for the tools themselves which have little reason to be shown alongside the main browser treeview control.

2) In the future this will potentially allow us to offer different user "roles" when running in server mode. For example, some users might only be given access to browse the schema and manage objects, or others might only be given access to query tools and not be able to schema browse.

Hi All,

I’m currently developing a proof of concept (POC) for integrating a side workspace (7708) into pgAdmin 4 similar to the workspaces found in VSCode and PyCharm. This workspace will be for Query Tool, PSQL, and Schema Diff Tool. I’ve completed the initial phase of this POC and would appreciate your feedback on the following points:
Does this approach seem promising?
We plan to make the interface configurable, allowing users to choose between "Classic UI" and "Workspace UI." We’ll also work on selecting appropriate labels for these options.
How it works/behaves:
The first workspace is the general workspace, which includes the Object Explorer and other basic tabs (retaining the current look and feel).
The second workspace is dedicated solely to the Query Tool, where we’ll introduce a welcome page (the design is still in progress). Every Query Tool and View/Edit Data tab will open within this workspace.
The third workspace is reserved for PSQL, where all PSQL tabs will be opened.
The fourth workspace is specifically for Schema Diff, where all Schema Diff tabs will be opened.
Challenges:
Drag and Drop objects from the General workspace to the Query Tool workspace.
Changing the UI from "Classic" to "Workpsace" and vice versa based on preference setting.
I have created an installer for OSX and Windows if you would like to check the behavior you can download it from https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/18TO5ezO7PcgI0ArStPW0S2gBvqInvDkz?usp=drive_link
