Show HN: Open source database diagram editor
At first I thought this was drawio: https://www.drawio.com/ with which you can generate a schema diagram from SQL. Is this the other way around.

Monodraw
For anyone who is willing to use a webapp, I like drawio[0]. You can download locally[1] and self host (I just use the python webserver).
While finding the Github, I see they now actually package an Electron application, so that is probably worth exploring[2].

Draw.io
> Additional minified JavaScript files and Java libraries are used in this project. All of the licenses are deemed compatible with the Apache 2.0, nothing is GPL or AGPL, due dilgence is performed on all third-party code.
Here's an issue that was opened:
https://github.com/jgraph/drawio/issues/3782
> The file for converting the mermaid code to mxgaph xml is available only in minified version. the unminified version "mermaid2drawio.js" is missing. Please include that.
Answer:
> We do not supply the source to that file.
With such phrasing, for now, I'll consider drawio proprietary with some parts in Apache 2 (even if it's actually the majority of the code).
It might be possible to have a fork with some optional features related to these non provided files removed, if by luck no critical feature is impacted.

Do you use an external game visual flow tool for planning purposes? If so, what is it and why do you like it?
Specifically I've been working on an incremental game and I've been using https://www.drawio.com/ to help me plan out what I want the progression of features/unlocks to be as the player progresses through the game, what pre-requirements/events are for each feature/unlock, etc.
