ChartDB instantly turns your database schema into a beautiful, editable ER diagram with a single query. It’s free, open-source, and built for developers - finally making database exploration and design intuitive and shareable. 👇🤯
Guy and I built ChartDB because working with database schemas has always been… well, painful.
We wanted a tool that could take a single query and instantly turn it into a beautiful, editable ER diagram - no DB connection needed, no manual mapping, and no clunky UI.
Since our first launch, we’ve listened closely to the feedback from thousands of developers and shipped ChartDB v2 with: • Real-time collaboration for teams • AI Assistant - Like vibe-coding, but for databases • Save custom views of your database diagrams and embed anywhere • Larger diagrams & better performance for huge schemas • More import/export sources (PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQL Server, SQLite, ClickHouse, and more) • Open-source core so you can self-host or extend it
What we’re most proud of is seeing developers use ChartDB to onboard teammates faster, document architectures, and plan schema changes without drowning in SQL scripts.
We’d love to hear your feedback, feature requests, or even crazy ideas - we’re building this with the community.
@bengeekly Love that idea! 🙌 Laravel migration export isn’t live yet, but it’s definitely on our radar. Totally agree the community would benefit big time, thanks for putting it on our list 🙏
@tsabary Really appreciate that Yanay! 💙 Means a lot hearing it from someone who’s been using ChartDB already. We’ll keep pushing more updates your way soon 🚀
Dude instant ER diagrams from a raw query and no DB connection needed . Real-time collab + AI assistant is pure magic for onboarding. Open-source too! Finally schema design that doesn’t suck.
Appreciate that a lot Andrew 🙏 Glad the instant ER + AI angle resonates, onboarding was exactly the pain point we wanted to solve. Excited to keep improving it and would love your feedback as you try it out!
Turning your schema into an editable ER diagram with just a query is realy next-level—no more messy manual charts, tbh! You guys nailed the dev workflow fr.
Whoa, finally a way to actually see what's going on in my database instead of squinting at endless tables! Does ChartDB work with live data updates, too? This is just so well done.
Hi, doesn’t it have an auto-draw relationship feature in tables? I tried the Docker self-hosted version and set up an AI endpoint with the model name and API key. When I pasted the Postgres output JSON, it displayed beautifully, but there were no relationship lines.
ChartDB makes schema exploration feel like design. One query turns your database into a clean, editable ER diagram free, open-source, and built for devs who want clarity without the clutter.
ChartDB v2 is a game-changer! This database diagrams editor for teams offers seamless collaboration, intuitive design, and powerful features like instant schema visualization and AI-powered SQL exports, making it a must-have tool for product teams and developers, streamlining database design and boosting productivity significantly.
