SQLite Schema Diagram Generator
You might try https://schemaspy.org/ - it generates a website with ER diagrams that only go one or two relationships out, but they have clickable table names to get to the next diagram
- Document your database simply and easily

DE new on the job
I had the same problem when i started my job. I used SchemaSpy to generate an html with all of metadata and ERD diagrams as a reference point. Then i used dbt to connect to the database and used dbt to document the table and column that i have worked on. It takes time to document but it's worth it if you company don't have your database documented yet.

Spring, SchemaSpy DB docs, and GitHub Pages
SchemaSpy is a standalone application that connects to the database, scans its tables and schemas, and generated nicely composed HTML documentation. You can check out an example sample by this link but I'm showing you just one screenshot to clarify my point.

- Tips on investigating new databases with minimal documentation?

Looking for a database documenting tool to generate docs for analysts
I like the diagrams and reports SchemaSpy generates. If you are using a DBMS that allows setting comments to tables, views, columns (and other objects), those will be included and that makes those reports even more helpful

Schema to dia/UML/etc/whatever

Graphviz: Open-source graph visualization software
I've used GraphViz a number of times and highly recommend it as a standard tool on your belt. Having a stand-alone executable that can export to SVG is great.
The most complex thing I've done with it [1]: a tool (MIT-license) that builds diagrams of the data and addressing pipeline for a DSP processor, and lets one 'scrub through' the assembler code frame by frame and see the values propagate through the blocks.
Also PlantUML [2] uses it for most diagrams.
Getting layout and positioning the way you want can be tricky but is usually achievable with patience and hidden objects.
