How to make the job of a game designer easier?

My hair stands on end at the way our game designers work now. For example, to create a quest in the game, you need to add this quest to the odt-table, from which sql will be generated, in which one of the lines will be the basic characteristics of the quest. Then you need to create a quest id.cfg file where you write down the main objectives of the quest, a reward and scripts, and then also a txt file, where there will be a quest name, description, description for each of the tasks, in general, darkness. The human factor greatly affects the number of errors, you have to test a lot.
Now I'm starting a new project and the question arose how to do all this safely and simply?
The most correct way that I see is to bring everything to a relational form, create a database, create a web muzzle for it and enjoy. But we don’t have the resources to create a web muzzle, so the questions are:
1. Are there any free game config editors, something like tiled, only for managing files: describe the structure of each of the objects (quest, goals, item, game event ...) set the dependencies between them (the quest may contain from 1 to 10 goals...) and work with it through forms. I would not like to use solutions in the form of access, because I want to maintain a version control system and who added what when and deleted it, but with text files it is easier.
2. Or are there any quick solutions for organizing such webmords. Perhaps I am overestimating its complexity.
It would be interesting to hear who else encountered such problems and what tools they use to manage resources.
