Versions:
Oracle SQL Developer 24.3.1 is a free, integrated development environment released by Oracle Corporation to streamline the creation, debugging, and administration of Oracle Database instances, whether they reside on-premises or in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. The application furnishes database professionals with a unified workspace that covers the entire PL/SQL application life-cycle: developers can author and refine packages, procedures, and triggers with context-sensitive code completion and refactoring tools; execute ad-hoc queries or extensive scripts in an interactive worksheet that supports explain-plan visualization and autotrace; and monitor live sessions, storage, and security settings through an embedded DBA console. Complementing these core functions, a flexible reports interface exposes hundreds of predefined diagnostics while allowing user-defined HTML, PDF, or XML output, and a fully-featured data-modeling subsystem enables forward and reverse engineering of relational designs. Organizations that operate heterogeneous estates can additionally leverage the built-in migration hub to move schema objects, data, and business logic from Microsoft SQL Server, MySQL, Sybase, IBM Db2, and other third-party systems into Oracle with step-by-step wizards and automated datatype conversion. Because the program is Java-based, it runs on Windows, macOS, and Linux without additional Oracle client software, requiring only a JDK 11 or newer runtime and connection credentials. SQL Developer 24.3.1 is the current and only maintained release, receiving quarterly updates that introduce support for new Oracle Database features, enhanced cloud authentication, and performance improvements. The software is available for free on get.nero.com, with downloads provided via trusted Windows package sources such as winget, always delivering the latest version and supporting batch installation of multiple applications.
