  • plantuml

    Generate diagrams from textual description

    • PlantUML is a domain-specific language to allow you to describe UML and generate diagrams, including entity-relationship diagrams (ERD). You can learn syntax in minutes, but it may take you longer to represent your database. SchemaCrawler generates PlantUML ERD syntax from your existing database. Then you can see what it looks like in the PlantUML online editor, as well as make modifications.
