As part of my research, I'm also building a new UI for exploring a database using data visualizations and an ER diagram. Here is a half-baked demo: http://mondial.kyrixdemo.live/

Hopefully the UI is self-explanatory - if not try clicking on visual objects to perform drill down, or search something in the top righthand corner.

The underlying dataset is a public DBMS called MONDIAL: https://www.dbis.informatik.uni-goettingen.de/Mondial/mondia...

This is fantastic, thanks for sharing! The unique ability to drill down into connected tables and visualize the relationships and data within is unique (for me at least). Are you building this as a personal tool or building it in a manner to apply on any database? Would love to know more

It's intended to support general relational databases. But right now the code is kind of hacky with little documentation. We wrote a paper on it but it's still under review.

This is cool. The node label should display the name of the table for some reason it seems to be missing.

Is this open source?

[tracyhenry]

Yep currently you need to hover over a node to see the table name. We need to find a way to show the labels without generating too much clutter.

Also, it is open source: https://github.com/tracyhenry/kyrix https://github.com/tracyhenry/kyrix-j
