Free Front-end tools for DB2?

[Rhino]

I have some small personal databases and I would like to build some
input forms and reports for them. What free front-end tools are out
there that can access my DB2 databases?

I'm running DB2 LUW 10.5 on Windows 10.

There are many tools:
- IBM DB2 Studio: https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/downloads/im/data/
- DBeaver: http://dbeaver.jkiss.org/
- Execute Query: http://executequery.org/index.php
- DbVisualizer: http://www.dbvis.com/

Any many many more. Basically every tool that supports JDBC connections.

Thank you, Gregor!

I'm particularly looking for tools that I can use to
- build input forms that have validations in them e.g. ensure that a
date on an input form is in an appropriate range and format, provide
dropdowns and spinners for values that have limited ranges like integers
and categories, etc.
- generate reports that do formatting of the data, create derived data,
and produce subtotals and totals

Do any of the tools you mentioned do that? If not, can you recommend
free tools that *will* do those things?
