I haven't used FoxyDB myself, but I have read the documentation (which is obviously not as good as hands-on experience). If I've understood it right, it is database-specific. The current version works with MySql, MariaDB and FireBird. Support for PostgreSQL and SQL Server will come "in the future" (en el futuro).
Essentially, it provides an object-oriented wrapper for VFP's SQL pass-through. It has the same capabilities as SQLEXEC() and related functions, but it does so through properties and methods of a database object.
Whether that suits your way of working or not is something you would have to decide for yourself. Why not download it and try it out on a simple project?
Sorry I can't give you any hard information. Maybe others here have some experience with it.

P.S. The only documentation I found was in Spanish. I assume that won't be a problem for you?
