About ChartDB
ChartDB is a tool for turning a database schema into an interactive diagram. You import the schema, edit the diagram and export SQL scripts for your database.
What it does
The import uses a single query to fetch the full schema, which takes only a few seconds. ChartDB supports MySQL, MariaDB, PostgreSQL, SQL Server and SQLite, plus several cloud warehouses. Diagrams can be exported as SQL or as images for documentation, and there is a real-time collaboration feature for teams.
