The original title is "Stop Hand-Translating Between SQL and Your ERD"

Short summary

Schemity is a desktop ERD tool that imports SQL dumps to auto-generate entity-relationship diagrams and converts diagram edits back into reviewed migration SQL diffs. The author argues most ERD tools force manual transcription in both directions, creating drift between diagrams and actual schemas. The post is a product blog with significant self-promotion but raises a valid workflow pain point.

• •Schemity automates bidirectional SQL-to-ERD translation
• •Diagram edits generate reviewable ALTER TABLE migration diffs
• •Supports PostgreSQL, MySQL, MariaDB, SQL Server, SQLite, and Supabase
