Project Description: Liam ERD

What is the project about?

Liam ERD is a tool that automatically generates Entity-Relationship (ER) diagrams from a database. It focuses on creating visually appealing and interactive diagrams to help users understand complex database schemas.

What problem does it solve?

It simplifies the process of understanding and visualizing database structures. Instead of manually creating ER diagrams, users can automatically generate them from their existing database, saving time and effort. It helps in visualizing complex schemas.

What are the features of the project?

• Beautiful UI & Interactive: Offers a clean design with interactive features like panning, zooming, and filtering.
• Simple Reverse Engineering: Creates diagrams from existing database schemas.
• Effortless Setup: Requires zero configuration; users only need to provide their schema.
• High Performance: Optimized to handle both small and large databases, including those with 100+ tables.
• Fully Open-Source: Allows community contributions.

What are the benefits of the project?

• Easy visualization of complex database schemas.
• Time-saving through automatic diagram generation.
• Improved understanding of database structures.
• Interactive exploration of database relationships.
• Open-source and community-driven development.

What are the use cases of the project?

• Understanding existing database structures.
• Documenting database schemas.
• Collaborating on database design.
• Reverse engineering databases for analysis or migration.
• Educational purposes for learning about database relationships.
