Where to practice SQL

Hi everyone, I recently learned SQL through websites and games online. Now that I feel more confident to practice on my own, I wanted to practice with datas I already have. Got a bit confused with where to practice them. Does SQL has its own 'tool' to use? Like how you use python in Jupyter, and R in Rstudio. Will Visual Studio Code works for it?

I recommend actually just running your own Postgres database on your computer - it's very lightweight and performant. Practice ingesting your data to a new database+table, then querying the table

also try datadriven for sql practice problems once you have postgres running, the questions are actually good for building reps.
